Step Forward

A Generational Capital Campaign to Advance Institutional Excellence for the Families of Today and the Children of Tomorrow

The transformative STEP Forward Capital Campaign for St. Thomas seeks to renew, revive, and reimagine our campus, delivering crucial improvements that address the evolving needs of our parish life and elementary education programs.

Investing in What Matters Most

Campaign Priorities

The STEP Forward Campaign focuses on four priorities identified as essential to St. Thomas’ continued success.

Priority One:

Advancing Our Tradition as a Welcoming Community

Discover a unified, redesigned campus entry that brings the Church and School together. From the transformative renovation of the Church Entrance to the Great Hall, these spaces encourage connection, reflection, and shared moments for everyone who walks through.

Priority Two:

Advancing Our Tradition of Academic Excellence

Invest in resources to strengthen student development across all grade levels and subjects, so we can deliver best-in-class academics engineered for the learners of tomorrow.

Priority Three:

Advancing our Tradition of Educating for Social and Physical Well-being

Support spaces and programs that strengthen connection, nurture wellness, and care for the whole child, including the Gymnasium and Wellness Center.

Priority Four:

Advancing our Tradition of Planning for the Future

Create the cutting-edge infrastructure needed to ensure St. Thomas retains its history while remaining structurally and financially sustainable for years to come.

Campaign Progress

The STEP Forward Campaign is already underway with support from members of the St. Thomas community.
