May News

It’s May !  It’s that time of the year when the days get longer and the kids get tired of school. Please remember we have another month to go and it’s an important one.  Please continue to reinforce bed time and homework issues. Concentrating in school can be tough enough in May and without the necessary rest it can be next to impossible.

Thank you!

What better time than now to thank you for the support and encouragement of the parents and parishioners who sacrifice to provide a beautiful school, a staff and materials for the children.  

It has been our pleasure to work with your children.

Shorts or no shorts !?!?

                        Please try to respectful of our Lord and wear something other than shorts when attending Mass.  Our students attend Mass on Wednesdays and take turns on Fridays.  If the weather is going to be warm that day, please feel free to send along a pair of shorts to change into after Mass.

Summer Skills

We at SS Peter & Paul School are committed to offering the best education we can to your children.  We are offering summer help in Math and a special Library time to encourage reading over the summer.    On the average children lose many of their skills during the summer.  Please remember to have them read and practice their Math facts daily.

Enjoy your Summer !
