Your time and talents help children feel a whole community behind them.

There is a role for every family - whether you can give an hour, share your career or culture, help behind the scenes, or join an event. Parent participation helps children see school and home working together.

We notice and celebrate involvement

Parents make a difference here.

Kindergarten readiness

Build routines, confidence, language, and independence for a strong transition to kindergarten.

Early literacy

Read together, talk about stories, sing songs, and help your child notice letters and sounds.

Healthy growth

Explore positive discipline, nutrition, healthy screen-time habits, and child development milestones.

What we are building together

A strong beginning - and a school family that lasts.

Pre-K is the start of your child's Saint Peter's story, not a stopping point. As children grow from kindergarten through sixth grade, our commitment remains the same: they are known, challenged, and loved.
