Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 9, 2026

Saint Peter's Academy, 4250 38th Avenue, Vero Beach, FL 32967, respects the privacy of students, parents, guardians, and staff. This notice describes how we use contact information for school communications, including the SPA Connect text and automated voice notification service. For our broader website and online admissions practices, see our website privacy notice.

Information we collect

Through school enrollment and approved contact-update processes, we may collect parent or guardian names, telephone numbers, email addresses, preferred languages, student-to-guardian relationships, emergency-contact designations, and communication preferences or consent records. We also may keep records of messages sent, delivery outcomes, and requests to stop receiving texts.

How we use contact information

We use this information to operate the school and communicate about emergencies, safety, weather-related closures, early dismissals, schedule changes, school meetings, school events, and other important educational or administrative notices. We do not use school notification contact lists to send third-party advertising.

Text messaging and voice calls

Where a parent or guardian has provided the appropriate consent, Saint Peter's Academy may send school-related SMS text messages or automated voice calls to the telephone number provided. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. For SMS, reply STOP to opt out and HELP for help. You may also call the school at (772) 562-1963 to update your contact information or communication preferences. See our SMS Terms and Conditions for details.

Some urgent safety-related notices may be handled under applicable emergency communication rules. We do not treat routine school reminders as emergency exemptions from ordinary consent requirements.

Service providers and sharing

We may use contracted technology providers, including Twilio for delivery of school telephone and text notifications and Supabase for protected communication records, to process information only as necessary to provide the service. School administrators and other specifically authorized personnel may access contact information for legitimate school purposes.

Mobile opt-in information and SMS consent will not be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. We do not sell parent or guardian phone numbers or SMS consent information. We may disclose information when required by law or to respond to legitimate safety needs, subject to applicable student privacy requirements.

Safeguards and retention

We use access restrictions and technical safeguards intended to protect student and family contact records. We retain records as necessary for school operations, legal obligations, and appropriate documentation of messaging preferences. No internet-based service can promise absolute security.

Your choices and corrections

Contact the school office to correct a phone number, ask about a communication preference, or request information about applicable school records. Opting out of SMS does not by itself change enrollment, emergency contact designations, or other required school notices through alternative channels.
