First Day Success
Our first day back was a huge success! All the students seemed excited to be back and ready to learn! Father Mark was able to join us in the morning for an all school prayer service where we were able to celebrate together the blessings God has given us.

Safegaurding Class
At back to school night everyone was given a packet that explained the expectations of becoming a volunteer/chaperone. The Archdiocese policy is that in order to participate in these activities you must first take a safeguarding class. St. Peter's is going to be hosting a class on Thursday, October 24th at 6pm in the school cafe. Please follow the instructions below to sign up for the class.

Spirit wear/Uniforms
New this year we are going to have our spirit wear and uniform sales completely online. I have attached a link to the website that you will use to purchase these. You will need an access code, which is K6PDU to enter the site. Please remember that students are expected to wear red polos on Thursday's, which are church days, as well as on field trip days. This link for purchasing will be open from August 19th-September 8th.

Red Folders
Red folders are going home today and will go home every Wednesday with students. New this year, folders will be going home with the youngest child in the family. Please take the time each week to look in the folders for all important information from the school office. Weekly newsletters, permission slips, and community/school event flyers are sent home in these folders.

Permission Slips
Permission slips went home on back to school night and are due September 16th for the all school mass at St. Benedicts and September 24th for the parade. Please also be aware that $4 is due to pay for the bus fee. Many families have turned in the permission slips, but not payment. Please feel free to stop in the office if you need an additional field trip form.

Nut-free Policy
Please be aware that we are a nut free school due to the fact that we have many students with severe allergies. This means that all student snacks and lunch must be NUT FREE. This includes PB&J sandwiches. Thank you!
