Vision, Mission, and Philosophy

United in Vision

St. Peter School imparts the Gospel message of Jesus Christ as it is viewed in Catholic Church doctrine and tradition.  The school prepares its students to be responsible Christians in their words and actions so that they may be of service to their Church, community, and to their country.

United in Mission

The mission of St. Peter School is to teach Gospels values and to nurture the total development of each student according to the charism of the Marianites of Holy Cross. 

Philosophy

Called by the Gospel to teach as Jesus did, to bring Christ to others, to be Christ to all, St. Peter Catholic School integrates Catholic tradition and values with the spiritual, intellectual, emotional, and social environment of each student.  A Christian community is created when the Message is proclaimed and human knowledge, enlightened by faith, is shared by teachers, students, parents, and parish members in a spirit of freedom and love.  To foster a Christian understanding of mutual responsibility for one another, community worship and service is stressed.  Excellence in academic preparation is encouraged. Armed with knowledge and experience, students are enabled to "pace their development as Christians with their growth as citizens of the world."
