Philosophy

Recognizing the role of the parent as the primary educator and caretaker of the child, Saint Peter Martyr School Extended Care assists our parents in accomplishing this duty. The program serves working families who desire parochial school education and supplementary day care in a Christian environment for their children enrolled at Saint Peter Martyr School. Our goal is to provide a safe and happy environment which addresses a child’s physical, emotional, spiritual, academic, and social needs.

Organizational Structure

The Extended Care Program is part of the total school program of Saint Peter Martyr School and is under the supervision of the school principal. The Extended Care Program Director is responsible for the operation of the program. The director keeps the records for the program but all finances are cleared through the families incidental billing account on FACTS.
