Financial Aid

Affording a St Peter Lutheran Education

It is our sincere desire to make a quality Christian education accessible to those families who support our values, and who seek partnership with our school. At this time, merit scholarships are unavailable; St. Peter distributes financial aid to families solely on the basis of need. All financial aid applications are handled with strict confidence.
