"Creating a difference in Children" has been a theme at St. Peter's Lutheran School since it opened in August 1993.
We seek to create that difference spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, socially and physically.
St. Peter's Lutheran School will provide a means for the congregation to reach out to parents and students in our community.
Each parent, whether a congregation member or not, will be required to be actively involved in the education of their children and will be expected to work to further the stated goals and objectives of the school.
St. Peter's Lutheran School will strive for excellence in the development and use of the student's God-given gifts.
We believe that a "quality" education combines the elements of instruction (skillful teaching), curriculum (active engagement of mind and body), school climate (a caring, Christian community), and an active partnership with the parents of the students.".
