A Foundation Solid as a Rock

Our Middle School curriculum is designed to challenge your child. Our dedicated faculty members are committed to your child's academic and spiritual growth.

Individual Attention for Your Child

Parent teacher conferences are offered each semester, but you may always schedule a conference when needed. Teachers meet with students before and after school for extra assistance, and during breaks, lunch and the sixth grade study hall.
“SPCS instilled in me a great work ethic, helped me to develop strong study habits, and gave me the educational head start I needed in high school.” -- Kaki Thorell, SPCS Class of 2014, Chancellor's Fellow at ECU

Celebrating our faith is integrated into all SPCS activities. The Catholic faith is taught, while other religious viewpoints are respected and discussed. Children of all faiths are welcome.

On Fridays, we attend an all-school Mass at Saint Peter Catholic Church, where students may have role in the readings. Middle School students sit with their prayer partners who are in Kindergarten, first or second grade. They become role models to the younger buddies.
