Giving Tuesday is Just Over A Week Away
In just two weeks, we’ll be celebrating Giving Tuesday, the largest one-day fundraising initiative of the year at St. Thomas More Collegiate. This day is an opportunity for our entire community—alumni, parents (past and present), and supporters like you—to come together and make a lasting impact on our school and our students.
When you give on Giving Tuesday, your donation goes directly to the Knights Annual Fund. This fund supports programs and initiatives that go beyond government funding and tuition, ensuring excellence in:
• Academics: Inspiring our students to reach their full potential.
• Arts: Nurturing creativity and expression.
• Athletics: Building teamwork and resilience.
• Faith: Grounding us in our values and mission.
• Action & Advocacy: Empowering our Knights to create change in the world.
Your contribution helps us keep tuition increases low while continuing to provide the exceptional, faith-based education our students and families have come to expect. Plus, every gift is fully tax-deductible!
This Giving Tuesday, let’s come together to ensure that our Knights have the tools they need to succeed and thrive, not just today but for generations to come.
Mark your calendar for Dec 3rd and stay tuned for how you can be part of this incredible day of giving! If you’d like to get a head start, you can make your one-time or monthly donation now through supportknights.ca.
After School Academic Support
Want to excel in academics? Need extra help with school assignments? Doing well in your courses and wanting to help others succeed? If you are thinking “Yes” to any of these, then the After School Academic Support is the right place for you.
The After School Academic Support offers a wide range of support to students who need help in completing their homework assignments and preparing for any upcoming assessments. Our academically excelling Tutors help their peers that need some extra support to be confident and do well in their academics. Also, Peer Tutors get their Service Hours for the amount of hours that they have tutored. The program runs throughout the year every Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 2:45 – 3:45 pm at the Learning Commons. You are free to attend any/all of the days depending on your own schedule.
If you are interested in Peer Tutoring or getting some academic support, then show up on our starting day Monday, September 16 from 2:45 – 3:45 pm at the Learning Commons for sign-up and ask any questions. For further information contact Mrs. Eugine.
