Choosing a private school is one of the biggest decisions you'll make for your child. You want to know that your investment leads to something meaningfully different from what's available for free down the road. Here's what sets St. Peter apart.
Small Class Sizes, Real Attention
At St. Peter, your child isn't one of thirty. Our classes are intentionally kept small so that teachers can know every student by name, adapt instruction to individual strengths and needs, and catch the moments where a child needs encouragement or a new challenge. Small class sizes aren't a marketing line for us; they're the foundation of how we teach.
Proven, TEKS-Aligned Curriculum
Our academic program is built on recognized, research-backed curriculum:
HMH and IXL for language arts and reading
Amplify Math for mathematics
Nancy Larson for science
Enduring Faith for spiritual formation.
Every subject is aligned with the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) and delivered through hands-on, developmentally appropriate instruction. Faith isn't an add-on at the end of the day. It's integrated into the academic experience as one of six core subject areas. For a detailed look at what this means in the classroom, visit our

Experienced, Qualified Teachers
The quality of a school comes down to the people in the classroom. Our lead teachers are state-certified, hold college degrees, and bring real experience to their work. Our kindergarten teacher, Karla Balduc, holds a Master's degree in education with a specialization in reading and more than 25 years of classroom experience. Every staff member completes background checks, CPR and first aid certification, and ongoing professional development.

A Brand-New, Purpose-Built Facility
Our new 22,000 square foot building was designed specifically for K-5 education. It features eight oversized classrooms (900 square feet each), a full gymnasium, and a commercial kitchen. Every space was planned with young learners in mind, from bright, engaging classrooms to safe, secure campus design. This isn't a repurposed building or a temporary setup. It was built for exactly what we're doing.
