The St. Thomas More Collegiate
Hall of Fame
The Hall of Fame was founded to honour the alumni, staff and friends of St. Thomas More Collegiate who exemplify what it means to be a “Knight” through their personal achievements and/or service to STMC. They represent what is best in the STMC community, and offer our present-day Knights both pride in our past and inspiration for their future.
