Saint Peter School is a family of learners serving the Capitol Hill parishes and community.
We provide our children with an education that is founded on love of God and service to others, characterized by Catholic values and academic excellence, and dedicated to addressing each child`s unique talents and abilities.
At Saint Peter School we believe that our job is to assist parents, who have primary responsibility for the education of children, in the ethical, spiritual, intellectual, emotional, and physical formation of the children entrusted to them by God and which they, in turn, entrust to our care.
Our goal is to make our Catholic faith living, conscious, and active in our students` lives through the light of instruction and practice, and that our Catholic faith and values are integral to all we do and teach.
That learning is lifelong and cumulative and that acquiring a love of learning at an early age leads to an honorable and rewarding lifetime of self-fulfillment and service to God and to others.
