A HISTORY OF EXCELLENCE

In 1958, St. Peter School supporters cheered as shovels broke ground and efforts to construct the long-awaited Catholic Elementary School officially began. As we celebrate over 60 years of Catholic education, we are called to remember the overall mission of our founders: to educate the young people of our towns and to nurture their spiritual growth.

This is the heart of our Catholic education. Since classes first began, St. Peter School has fostered academic achievement and spiritual development, encouraging students to continually seek a life of service. We strive to make the world a better place!

With the deep dedication of our parish, families, and teachers, St. Peter continues to develop and thrive. In 2001, we celebrated the addition of our second floor of classrooms and new gymnasium. In 2008, we opened our technology lab, ushering in a new spirit of learning. We continue to enhance the educational facilities and opportunities offered to our students, and with God's grace we look forward to continued growth and development.

This powerful history serves as the basis of our strength today. Guided by God's love and the power of the Holy Spirit, we continue to build on the strong foundation upon which St. Peter School was built.
