St. Peter’s School is a Catholic elementary school in the Archdiocese of Washington D.C. It serves the educational needs of children of various abilities from the parishes of Our Lady Help of Christians and St. Peter’s. We accept children from other parishes and the community on a space available basis. The school includes students in grades kindergarten through eight. Before and after care is available for our students. Since 1993, St. Peter’s has offered programs for students with learning disabilities. In May 1996, St. Peter’s was chosen to be a demonstration school for the Archdiocese inclusion program.

The school implements all policies and procedures of the Archdiocese of Washington. St. Peter’s has a School Advisory Board, which reviews school policy and procedures and makes recommendations for any revisions or re-evaluations. Final authority for decisions regarding school operation and procedures rests with the pastor and principal.
