News & Events
Safe Environment Training :
The Diocese of Colorado Springs, in compliance with the U.S. Bishops’ “Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People,” has established training programs for volunteers who work with our students. Safe Environment Training is required for all volunteers who interact with children in any capacity at St. Peter Catholic School. We thank our entire school community for sharing our commitment to exercise abundant caution in keeping each and every child safe. VOLUNTEERS – PLEASE READ! If you've already received Foundational Safe Environment Training, you can complete update training and the five-year background check renewal process ONLINE. If you are a current volunteer, you may receive an email from CMGConnect and/or Selection.com – these platforms are run by Catholic Mutual Group, the diocesan insurer. CMGConnect will provide the date for the next update training and Selection.com will notify you that your background check is approaching the five year expiration date. If you have any questions, please contact Safe Environment Coordinator Julie Dickinson (julie.dickinson@petertherock.org or 719-481-3511 x1120). Thank you!

The students must have snow boots if they want to walk around and play on the snow-covered areas of the playground during recess. Also, as long as the outside temperature is above 31 degrees, we will be outside, so please make sure your child has the appropriate outdoor clothing. Thank you! Teacherease
Teacherease (www.teacherease.com) is the main parent resource to access grades, digital communication, assignments, and the calendar of events.

If a student needs a cell phone after school due to walking home from school, entering a house where no one is home, or attending sport practices or games, he/she is required to bring the cell phone to the office upon arrival in the morning to park the cell phone in the off position for the day. The cell phone may be picked up by the student at dismissal. At no time during the day should a cell phone be in a student's locker or in his/her possession. The administration reserves the right to search the contents of a confiscated cell phone. Parents are required to fill out a "Request for Permission to Bring a Cell Phone and/or other Two-Way Communication Device to School" form for approval. Uniform reminders for 2019-2020

The School Advisory Council (SAC) is an advisory board to the pastor and principal. The principle purpose of SAC is to offer advice on the operations of the school in the areas of strategic planning, mission effectiveness and faith development, financing, public relations and marketing, plant and facilities, and curriculum and instructional programs. The SAC meets once per month and sponsors the following events during the year: Community-Building Event - September - More information to follow The Trunk or Treat Night in October A Bingo Night with the Knights of Columbus Spaghetti Dinner The Open House in January If you are interested in serving on the council, please contact Sheila Whalen. Home and School Association (H&SA)
The Home and School Association is comprised of parent volunteers who are voted into these positions. We have a President, two VP's of fundraising, a VP of hospitality, secretary and treasurer. The term is for two years. The H&SA coordinates several fundraising events throughout the school year such as the Holiday Boutique, the Glow Run, a raffle and Spirit Nights. We also fund and/or coordinate other school events: Mother/Son Game Night, Father/Daughter Game Night/Dance, Teacher Appreciation Week, Back to School Party, food for conferences and the Science Fair, Field Day, Gala Sponsorship, and teacher reimbursements. We are always looking for parent volunteers throughout the year. It takes a lot to coordinate and run all of these events. Plus, it is fun!! If you are interested in helping with any of these events, we always send out notices looking for volunteers prior to each event. You can also email Dianne Falke. |
