Saint Peter's School Olney

Celebrating 60 Years of Faith & Knowledge

Welcome to Saint Peter’s Catholic School, a two time National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence in 2012 and again in 2020. Since its establishment in 1957, Saint Peter’s is recognized throughout the Archdiocese of Washington as a community in which children thrive both academically and spiritually. It is our mission to ensure that children, PreK-8th grade, graduate with not only a strong sense of self, but with a solid understanding of the Catholic faith and the knowledge and tools they need to continue their success.

We create an academic environment in which every child’s gifts are recognized, challenged and developed. With the help of technology and cooperative learning strategies, the needs of our students can be met in a variety of ways. While this school year has presented some new challenges, we take pride in the fact that our students and teachers have met these challenges head on and continue to rank in the top 15th percentile on a national scale.

As part of the community of members that forms Saint Peter’s Parish, Saint Peter’s School is dedicated to establishing a strong foundation of the Catholic faith within each of our students. Through faith-based learning, our students develop sound moral values, recognize the importance of helping others, and understand what it means to live as a follower of Jesus Christ.

parents share their experiences

I can't begin to thank St. Peter's School enough for what you provide for my children. My son (in middle school) loves school again, and has shown tremendous growth academically. . . His teachers do an amazing job communicating with me. He has a long way to go, but I can't begin to thank St. Peter's School enough. Our youngest has been thriving there for two years and LOVES kindergarten so much. We have decided to take the leap and enroll our middle daughter there next year, so that she too has the opportunity to grow academically as she enters middle school. I can't begin to thank you all enough for what you have brought our family. A calm, peaceful, supportive environment that fosters academic and spiritual growth for all children, even those who may have some learning differences. We LOVE St. Peters. With fondest regards, Brigid Meyer

"Mrs. Salah - I wanted to let you know that you are doing a phenomenal job . . . I can tell that you know the little ones well. I was a bit skeptical as to how the online learning would go. You have provided excellent content for the home, and through the Zoom meeting. Most of all, you keep them on track when their minds wander. Panteli is eager to join every day . . ."

"Thank you Ms. Trotta & Mrs. Smith for keeping my pre-k A student engaged during this difficult time. I amazed at how wonderful he is doing thus far. God bless you all in everything you are doing for these kids!"
