Creating an Environment Where Every Type of Learner Succeeds
|
Academic excellence is the goal for every student, and St. Peter's teachers combine the latest technology with hands-on activities, traditional teaching materials, and project-based learning to set the stage for success. Our team of qualified and experienced educators takes a collaborative approach to a curriculum that focuses on the fundamentals of language arts, math, science, social studies, and religion. Students in Kindergarten through 8th grade also enjoy auxiliary classes in music, art, physical education, technology, and Spanish, as well as various electives at the junior high level. Optional after-school enrichment courses offer even more opportunities for learning and fun.

Faith is the foundation at St. Peter's. We welcome students of all denominations, and are committed to helping children learn and grow with Jesus as their model. We begin in preschool, teaching important “Christ skills” like friendship, forgiveness, sharing, patience, gratitude and inclusion. Religion class and sacramental preparation are integral parts of the curriculum and students K-8 attend Mass regularly. The children live their faith through loving service: to each other, St. Peter's Parish, and the greater community.
