Amy Brauner is the 6th-8th English and the 7th grade homeroom teacher. She has been teaching at St. Peter's for 18 years.
Amy has lived in Jefferson City all of her life. She graduated from St. Joseph Cathedral, Helias Catholic High School, and Lincoln University. She earned her degree in Elementary Education with an emphasis in early childhood.
She has been married for 19 years to Mike Brauner, her high school sweetheart. They have three children; Logan (senior at Helias), Carson (8th grader), and Maggie (5th grader).
Because her children play so many competitive sports; cheering at soccer, football, softball, baseball, and basketball games are her hobbies. She doesn't have time for much else.
She feels very thankful to be a part of the St. Peter's staff. Back when she began working at St. Peters she felt a sense of being "Home". Many years have passed; the building, staff, and families may have changed, but that sense of "Home" hasn't. She has made life-long friendships with her colleagues and St. Peter families. Grateful and blessed would be the two words that best describe Amy.

We are kicking off our SPIRIT WEAR fundraiser to continue raising money for improvements and renovations of our Preschool and Elementary playgrounds. We would like to be able to remove the mulch from our playgrounds and replace it with rubber padding as well as relocate the preschool playground. Our plans are to start the playground renovations in May 2018 !! Renovations such as this will be very costly, so you will see different opportunities to contribute to this fundraising throughout the year.
This is a ONE TIME ONLY order and all orders MUST be received by November 30, 2017.
100% of every order goes directly to the playground fundraising!!
Spirit Wear from these orders can be worn on Spirit Wear days only. Please see the attached order form for this Spirit Wear order. Samples will be available in the school office for sizing if needed. All orders will be returned in time to be given as Christmas gifts. If you would like to pick up your order in the school office rather than having it sent home with your child, please be sure to note this on the order form. If you have any questions about the playground renovations, or are interested in helping with future fundraising for these renovations, please contact Lacy Ralston @ 573-636-8922 ext. 329.

Scrip will be available on a limited basis the week of November 6. We do not have school that Monday and I will be out of town on Thursday and Friday. Please send your orders in on Tuesday.

The last week to order Scrip before the Christmas holiday will be the week of Dec. 11.
Generic Gift Scrip will be available again for teacher and staff gifts. Don't know what to get for your child's teacher? Generic scrip is available in any increment. Just send a check made out to St. Peter Scrip with a note indicating the number and denominations of certificates that you want. I will make them out and send them to you so that your children can give them to teachers and staff. The recipient can then fill out an order form and order the scrip of their choice. This has been very popular with teachers and staff. If you send in a regular scrip order, please send a separate check for generic scrip.
Beginning on October 21, while supplies last, Great Lakes is offering some gift cards in smaller denominations for the holidays. The cards available are as follows:
