Saint Peter
Academy
Saint Peter Academy is located at 431 Fifth Avenue, River Edge, NJ 07661.
We are a Catholic Elementary School serving children from Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 8.
St. Peter Academy is a co-sponsored elementary school which provides an education which not only offers quality academic programs, but also instructions in the belief and traditions of our Catholic faith. This faith community affirms that Jesus Christ and His message of salvation is central to the life and vitality of the school. We believe that our primary function is to follow the invitation of Christ to live His Work, worship as a faith community and serve the needs of others
At the Academy, students celebrate the Word and Worship through reflection, scriptural study, daily prayer, and the preparation and celebration of meaningful liturgies. We strive to provide a balanced program whereby we meet the many needs of our students while developing all facets of the learning process.
The faculty views its responsibility as educators not only in the acquisition of knowledge, but in the development of spiritual, intellectual, physical, social and personal attributes. With the basic skills of foundation, students are encouraged to develop problem-solving techniques, systematic methods of research, critical thinking and an appreciation of the arts.
