It is operated independent of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Raleigh. It serves students and their families in the Raleigh, North Carolina area. HistoryThe school was founded in 2002 to meet the growing needs of Raleigh Catholics. Some of these families approached Bishop Francis Joseph Gossman about starting and gaining approval for this independent school to operate. The first classes were held at St. Luke the Evangelist Catholic Church in Raleigh. The school relocated to a larger facility at Paragon Park Road in Raleigh in 2004. In 2006 the school relocated to a larger space on Spring Forest Road. Since that time the school has grown and opened a new three-acre campus in August 2007. In 2012, the campus was further expanded to include a second building. The campus houses classrooms, faculty offices, laboratories, two theaters, a library, and a chapel.{{Citation needed|date=August 2016|reason=Reliable source needed for the whole sentence}} The school's strong academic program has attracted attention. 100% of graduates have been admitted to four-year colleges, many in the top-tier.

Colgate, Davidson, North Carolina State, Notre Dame, and Vanderbilt were among the nationally recognized colleges that admitted students from the school's class of 2015.{{Citation needed|date=August 2016|reason=Reliable source needed for the whole sentence}} Student lifeService and outreach work is a requirement for all students at St. Thomas More Academy.
