School Uniforms



School uniform tops can be ordered at anytime through our website HERE. In order to insure uniforms before the start of school in August, you must place orders by the July 12, 2023 deadline. Watch the newsletter for a pickup date/time for orders placed before the July 12 deadline. The Home and School Uniform Re-Sale will be at Open House, August 14, 2023.

Nurse's Notes:

As a reminder: students must provide a Doctor's note for any restrictions with an injury and/or a release of an injury. Also we have a 24 hour return policy after fever, diarrhea, or vomiting, and strep throat diagnosis.

Please remember to submit updated immunization records to the school office. Your child must be in compliance before he/she can start the 2023-2024 school year. 

Students entering Kindergarten will be required to have the following: 

• 4 DTaP, DTP, or DT’s—Diptheria, Tetanus and Pertussis. (DTaP,DTP,DT are all commonly known as “tetanus shots”; the difference is the amount of diphtheria, and the presence or absence of pertussis vaccine). 
• 3 Polio immunizations are required.
• 2MMR's - Measles, Mumps and Rubella 
• 3 Hepatitis B’s are required.
• 2 doses of Varicella (chicken pox vaccine)

St. Peter Home & School Committee News:

THANK YOU to all of the volunteers who helped at Summer Blast Off this year! We appreciate your support in making the event another success! And a BIG shout out to these St. Peter parents and local businesses who donated prize items to the event as well: Strikers, Yo Yums, McDonalds, Jennifer Enloe, TJ Ralston, Jefferson Bank, Coca Cola Bottling Co., Sno Biz, Missouri River Regional Library, Small Cakes, SK8 Zone LLC, Central Dairy, and JC Parks.

DID YOU KNOW…the St. Peter Home & School Committee provides the students, teachers, and faculty with their Spirit Shirts for the school year, AND also organizes various events throughout the school year for them? These events include, but are not limited to, the Back-to-School Swim event, Uniform Resale(s), Teacher/Staff First Day of School Lunch, Donuts with Dad, Morning with Mom, Teacher/Staff Christmas Party, Catholic Schools Week Teacher/Staff Lunch/Activities, Administrative Professionals Day, Teacher Appreciation Week Lunch/Activities, and Summer Blast Off. As you can probably guess, the Spirit Shirts and planning these events take, not only the Committee members volunteered time, but also quite a bit of money. Therefore, please know that due to inflation, we will be increasing the Home & School Annual Fee from $45 to $55 per family to help cover the costs. This $10 increase per family will begin with the 2023-2024 school year. 

We appreciate your continued support and are grateful for our amazing St. Peter families - Thank you!
