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.

tuition and fees
St. Peter’s School is a ministry of St. Peter’s Parish. Everyone who uses the service of our school shares in the responsibility of providing for its financial resources. Active members of St. Peter’s Parish pay an in-parish tuition rate for grades K – 8, which is less than the cost to educate and is subsidized by the parish. To be considered an active member of St. Peter’s Parish, the following conditions must be met:
1. Registration in the parish
2. Regular participation in weekend Liturgy
3. Active involvement in some form of parish ministry or service area
4. History of ongoing financial support and stewardship at the parish
If a registered person has no giving history for the 12 months prior to enrollment, they will be charged the non-parishioner rate for the term for which they are enrolling. Non-parishioners are also welcome to enroll in St. Peter's School and are charged a tuition rate that is reflective of the cost to educate.
St. Peter's offers a financial aid program for qualifying parish families who need help defraying the cost of tuition. We invite you to click on the link below and explore this option.
