At St. Peter's, our liberal arts education goes beyond preparing students to pass tests. Here, your child will engage in the pursuit of goodness, truth, and beauty—three pillars that guide every aspect of learning.
With stories of virtue, lessons that reveal God's design and experiences that inspire wonder, we help students develop character, a sense of purpose, and a deep appreciation for all of God's gifts.
Building A Foundation in Faith and Wisdom That Lasts a Lifetime
Academics at St. Peter the Apostle Catholic School
It’s about growing as a whole person, understanding God’s world, and becoming closer to Him in everything they do.
The pursuit of goodness, truth and beauty helps students understand that learning isn’t just about earning a grade or memorizing facts.
Students will study the life of Jesus, the teachings of the Church, and stories from the Bible to understand the One who is the Way, the Truth and the Life.
Faith
Students will examine pieces of art and listen to classical music, cultivating habits of careful observation and developing a deep appreciation for creative expression.
Art & Music
Students will discover the order and patterns in the world as part of God’s design. Learning about the stars, animals, and ecosystems can reveal the beauty and truth of creation.
Science & Math
Students will read classic books and stories that explore good and evil, courage, sacrifice, and love. They’ll discuss what these stories say about the human experience.
Literature
In our classrooms, teachers connect the three pillars to almost everything they teach.
