THE READ · FREE SUMMARY
St. Thomas More School shows signs of real financial distress. On the latest filing, net assets are negative on the latest filing — liabilities exceed total assets, so there is no reserve cushion. Revenue runs 96% tuition-dependent (peer median 86%), heavier than the boarding cohort typically carries, so the cushion does real work. Staff compensation runs 41% of expenses, well below the peer median, worth understanding why. NACUBO Composite Financial Index: -2.2 / 10, distressed.
St. Thomas More School reported $6.1M in revenue against $6.4M in expenses in fiscal year 2024, the most recent filing on record. Net assets stood at -$1.1M.
Operating margin landed at -3.6%, with 95.5% of revenue coming from tuition. Among same-size peers, that puts St. Thomas More School at the p17 on operating margin.
