School Reviews

Both of my children are alumni of St. Peter School. While students at St. Peter's were held to high academic standards and had great teacher/staff support. My children felt safe and comfortable with their school environment that over the years became like family. Currently, in high school and college, St. Peter School prepared them very well for the challenges of high school and beyond.
