Dear Saint Peter’s Families and Prospective Saint Peter’s Families, I welcome you to the Saint Peter’s School website. Our Catholic school serves children in grades PreK-3/4 to 8th grade. I am honored to serve as the principal and look forward to continuing the work we are engaged in for the 2019-2020 school year. Saint Peter’s School has been providing a strong Catholic education for students in the Olney, Maryland area for over 60 years. We work diligently to maintain a program that is personalized, caring, and high-achieving. Our school’s mission is to unlock all the doors of the human character to release the spiritual, intellectual, social, emotional, and physical potential of each child. Toward this end, the school is committed to continual self-evaluation and growth. Our dedicated faculty and staff have created a challenging academic and learning environment for all students. Our school has a reputation for innovation, creativity, strong spirituality, and excellence. We have a highly qualified and progressive teaching staff that is committed to providing our students with culturally relevant and rigorous instruction. We work hard to help each student develop essential skills to reach his or her highest potential. Saint Peter’s School has a very supportive and involved parish and parent community. We believe that a strong partnership among our school, parish, and home life is critical to student and school success. We encourage and invite you to participate and volunteer in our school. Without the support and involvement from parents and families, we would not be able to achieve our dreams. Working together enhances the caring school environment that makes our school so special. Sincerely, Kristen Cocozzella Principal
