Dear Parents,
It’s SPIRIT WEEK at St. Peter’s School--a special week where we can celebrate our unity and school pride! As parents, some ways we can show school spirit are by supporting our children as they learn new things at school, guiding them to have open hearts and open minds, attending school events and sports games, and volunteering to help at school. As we take part in this fun week recognizing the different ways we can show our school spirit, let us take time to pray as a community to the HOLY SPIRIT for guidance and strength, especially in these final two and a half weeks of school.
COME, HOLY SPIRIT,
And fill our hearts with your gifts.
Let our love be true and our charity be generous.
Help us in all our needs
and grant us the knowledge to do what is right.
Advise us in our doubts,
strengthen us in our weaknesses,
protect us when we are tempted,
and console us when we are afraid.
Graciously hear us, O Holy Spirit, and pour your light into our hearts, minds, and souls.
Guide us to live holy lives and to grow in goodness and grace.
AMEN.
–Mrs. Sandra Jimenez

On Fridays (unless there is a church service), students may wear the optional gray Aztecs hoodie, Aztecs sweatpants, and Aztecs T-shirt.

For more details on the school uniform, refer to the Uniform section of the Parent-Student Handbook that was distributed on the first day of school, which is also available on the school website: http://www.stpeterssf.org/parents-students
Students who are out of uniform will receive a “Uniform Notice” to be signed by a parent or guardian, as a reminder about the uniform policy, and to help us unite as a school community.
