We are truly blessed to be part of this wonderful Church and School Community! 2010 – 2011 was a fantastic school year because of all our wonderful families, students, pastoral staff, and faculty of St. Peter.
Once again we are now looking forward to continuing our role as a school where students
and staff recognize their potential, and celebrate their accomplishments. Our faculty continues to pledge their
commitment to help ensure the safety, welfare, and educational development of each child. We invite you to
visit our faith filled school and take an active role in your child's education. Together, all of us make
a difference!
For those of you who may not know St. Peter Catholic School and parish, here is some
important information to ponder… St. Peter is dedicated to providing a safe and nurturing environment
for all students. Inspired by Jesus' life, students are encouraged to become participating members of the church
and surrounding community. The faculty and clergy, in partnership with our parents, challenge our students to
achieve academic and personal excellence and promote a community of faith. Our philosophy reflects a thoroughness
of instruction by addressing the intellectual, spiritual, cultural and physical needs of our students. We work
to develop the skills, knowledge and behaviors which are necessary for our students to be creative, intellectually
curious, self-motivated and self-confident. We strive to help our students become independent thinkers who are able
to apply learned skills to daily life. St. Peter Catholic School has high expectations for each child and through praise and positive reinforcement; we produce self-confident students who know the value of hard work, the joy of achievement and the responsibility of respecting others. Together we will make a difference in our school, our parish, our homes, our community and our world.
In Him,
Peter C. Randlov
