Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic School has been organized for the purpose of educating young people, within a Parish community of living faith in Jesus Christ, for a satisfying and productive life.
The challenge of our school is to recognize each student as an individual and to help him/her develop a feeling of self-worth.
We hope to impact in our students' attitudes, skills, ideals and appreciation, which will help them to become useful and knowledgeable citizens.
Our school affirms high Christian, moral and ethical standards. The mission of Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic School is to provide a Catholic elementary education affordable to the Catholic community of Sts. Peter and Paul Parish and the surrounding areas.
This will be accomplished in a Christ-centered environment stressing excellence in academic, athletic, cultural and social development.
This is achieved through the cooperation and participation of students, parents, faculty, staff, administration, alumni, local parishes and friends, based on the Gospel message and the Roman Catholic teachings.
