In-Person Classes Five Days a Week

If distance learning doesn’t work for you and your family, please give us a call.

While public schools juggle distance learning and hybrid schedules, we are committed to in-person instruction and to making school as normal and safe as possible for our students during the pandemic. At Saint Peter’s, your child will be able to learn in a safe, loving, Christ-centered environment.

We enroll students in 1st – 6th grade.

We Have a Comprehensive Reopening Plan

We worked with our Diocese to prepare our plan for in-person classes. Here are some highlights of our plan:

  • School will start on August 18 with in-person classes, five days per week.
  • A distance learning option will be available for families who request it.
  • Drop-off will be from 7:30 to 8:00; pick-up from 2:45 to about 3:15.

  • Teachers and staff will have their temperature checked every morning.
  • Every student’s temperature will be checked daily before they exit their cars.

  • Students will be taught proper handwashing and hygiene protocols.
  • Hand-washing will be built into the daily schedule.
  • Hand sanitizer will be readily available to all students.
  • Students will only bring essential items from home, such as bookbag and lunchbox.
  • The school will be regularly cleaned and disinfected following government guidelines.

  • Class sizes will be limited so that each student has at least 36 square feet of space.
  • Classrooms will be configured so that each student has six feet of social distancing on all sides.
  • Students, staff, and visitors may not gather in communal areas in the school, such as the entry or restrooms.
  • Lunch will be held in each classroom.
  • Recess time will be staggered so that classes do not overlap.
  • Classes will remain separated during pick-up time to maintain social distancing

  • Students will wear a mask or face covering when social distancing is not possible, such as moving from one classroom to another.
  • Students will wear a mask or face covering when attending school Mass on Thursday mornings, seated with proper social distance.
