We have 5 kids that have either graduated from St. Peter the Apostle Catholic School or are still attending it now. We will be there for 22 years, non stop. It has been THE BEST 22 years!!!! We have been blessed with not only outstanding educations for our children, but teachers, staff, fellow students, and families that have touched all of our lives in SO many wonderful ways. Our older children have graduated from or are now attending the following schools: U.C. Berkeley, Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, and U.C. Davis. Excellent School! Excellent Choice for Successful Kids!
Our daughter is in her final chapter at St. Peter s and we have been pleased with the school all these years. Its biggest shortfall, to us, was the technology but that is no longer the case. With a community effort led by dedicated parents/teachers, St. Peter s is all revved up for the 21st century. It has a state-of-the-art computer lab and the classrooms are equipped with new hardware. We WISH that the school was K-12 but no matter where our daughter goes, we know she ll thrive because of the foundation that St. Peter s has afforded her both academically and spiritually. A personable pastor, proactive principal and dedicated teachers truly take on an integral role in helping to shape and develop the students to reach their potential. We have not been disappointed and encourage YOU to come and take a look for yourself!!!
I've been in this school with my children for 7 years. Great teacher/student ratios with wonderful teacher support. In a busy world that my wife and I live and work, St Peter the Apostle helps us nourish our children spiritually and socially. Bumps happen down any road but the trip is wonderful. Thank you for being there for my children. Highly Highly recommend to Catholics and all denominations looking to spiritually enrich your children.
Sent two children here. Unbeatable Catholic education. Close, one-on-one attention. Responsive teachers and administration. Worth every penny.
I love our school! We've been there since our oldest was in preschool, she's now in the 5th. We have two other children, one in 1st and the other in PK. Families know each other and their children. The 8th graders know the preschoolers. The school is a true community. The curriculum is challenging - and, most important, the Catholic teaching is true and strong.
I have two children currently attending St. Peter's. We returned to the school this year after leaving six years ago due to our dissatisfaction with some aspects of the school at that time. The recent changes in administration paired with the dedicated staff have made us beyond thrilled with our decision to return. It is clear to us, at this point in the school year, that our kids are receiving a challenging education and that the current leadership is focused on building a truly great school. The communication with parents is good as are the opportunities to help on campus and with extra curricular activities. Overall, my husband and I are impressed and looking forward to continuing our childrens' Catholic education at St. Peter's.
I have 2 kids attending St. Peter's and there is no other place in Fallbrook I would consider. They have been attending for the past 8 years and I have 6 more to go. They actually want me to take them early and pick them up late. (They can stay until 5:30 PM in "Aftercare"). The quality of teachers, the new programs offered, the spiritual guidance and support of their older "Buddy" has proven to be an atmosphere of protection that cannot be attained in a public school. We all have a choice in life, and grooming my children to walk with the Lord and experience the quality of education that prepares them for the corporate world can be achieved and surpassed at St. Peter's. Take a tour for yourself.
I have 3 kids attending St. Peter's Catholic School. My kids all started at the pre-school and have loved every minute. All three of my children love their teachers and hate to miss a day of school. I love the community and the quality education that my kids receive at St. Peter's! I am impressed with the quality of work that is expected from them and the love tht each of their teachers give to them daily. My favorite aspect of St. Peter's is the family atomospere. Each child in the school is known by name and they take care of one another. My children not only receive an excellent education they are in a great environment. For me, there was no other choice than St. Peter's!
My daughters have absolutely THRIVED since we moved them from another private school to St. Peter's. My Kindergartener is reading her sister's 2nd grade books, and my 2nd grader is at 4th grade level.It is obvious that each of these teachers treats her role at St. Peter s Catholic School as a vocation, not just a paycheck. I believe the support and encouragement from Mrs. Anne Lewis, the principal, plays a significant part in how positively the faculty impacts the students they teach. The faculty take a personal interest in my daughers' growth and development and as a result, both of my girls have experienced a fulfilling, rewarding and fun school year. Come and see what a difference St. Peter's can make in your child's life!!!!
A year ago we moved from Los Angeles to Fallbrook and enrolled our daughter at St. Peter's Catholic School. My daughter then a third grade, student loved the school the first day she visited it.. We couldn't have found a better and safe environment for our daughter. The warm loving nature of the teachers helped my daughter and us during our transition from the big city. Coming from a private school in LA., we found that St. Peter's not only had great teachers, academics and programs, but also a beautiful spirituality that has nourished all our lives. St. Peter's teachers and principal embrace each child and their family oriented approach have allowed us to feel very much at home. We love St. Peter's.
