Information for Parents
Parents and Guardians at St. Peter Lutheran School are encouraged to become active members of The School community through a wide range of opportunities for involvement and community building, including committee work, participation in school events, financial support, and school board membership.
We strive for an environment of collaboration, and invite parents to explore how they can apply their time, talents and resources to create an experience at St. Peter Lutheran School as enriching as their child's.
To discover more about what you can expect as a parent from St. Peter, and what we expect of our parents, please ask for a copy of the student handbook available in the school office.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
What have you done to maximize safety at St. Peter?
Safety is essential at St. Peter. Our faculty and staff devote time talking about safety, evaluating our current safety procedures, and we are always asking, ‘how can we make St. Peter a safer place for our students?’
Some of the safe guards we have in place include:
- Fingerprinting for all faculty, staff, coaches and people who spend time with students.
- We have and rehearse a detailed crisis plan that includes intruder/lockdown procedures, earthquake, and fire drills.
- All of our staff and faculty are certified CRP administrators.
-
How competent and prepared is the teaching faculty?
All of our educators are professionally trained (in the academic discipline of education). And, all of our teachers hold (at minimum) a B.A. degree from a regionally accredited university.
-
What curriculum do you use?
Our school does not involve the use of merely one academic curriculum. We work hard to evaluate and employ the best curriculum available; our approach is strongly influenced by the philosophy of the Core Knowledge Foundation Coreknowledge.org
