The faculty and staff of Thomas More Prep-Marian wishes to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the very kind anonymous donor(s) who recently surprised us with a most generous gift. You did not have to be so good to us, but you chose to do so and that makes it all the more special. We feel your care and support and are truly appreciative of your generosity. Thank you for blessing us as we continue our daily commitment to our students and each other. We offer prayers of thanksgiving and blessing for you in return--from our hearts, THANK YOU!
