Thomas the Tiger – Our New Mascot! Thomas the Tiger, whose father Thomas had been the mascot of St. Thomas for 30 years, became the official St. Thomas mascot during the 2011-2012 school year. While Thomas’s father liked to pose for pictures looking ferocious, young Thomas has been around St. Thomas long enough to learn about respect and listening and caring about other people. Thomas explains, “I learned that I could root and cheer like crazy for my team, the St. Thomas Tigers (GO TEAM!), and enjoy the games even more if everybody was a good sport and a team player.” Copies made of Thomas are soft and huggable. They are given to children who visit the school, to help them feel comfortable and happy during the visit. Thomas’s duties as mascot, in addition to welcoming children who visit, are to cheer loudly for the St. Thomas Tigers and to be the “paws on the ground” as the roving reporter, bringing you the latest news from St. Thomas.
