St. Peter School is built on the foundation of teaching Catholic Values to students through award winning teachers who are forward thinking and value the relationship between the parent, principal and student. This school fought an upward battle to remain open so that it could continue to serve both the inter-city areas as well as families from Jackson, North Canton, and Tuscarawas County. The diverse mix of students creates a foundation for today's world. Mrs. Fusillo, Principal, has a tough job of rebuilding the student base through the K-5 and middle school model at St. Thomas. This is the future of education. Our students will thrive at the High School Level because they will have the middle layer of social growth needed to move on. They will have the academic wealth from the pool of teachers at the High School!!! Very excited about my children's last years here.

In the heart of the arts district, this fantastic school has continued to look for ways to serve its students through not only traditional after school activities such as sports, but also offers the one and only Ms. Waddell--Canton's Youth Symphony Director as our strings/band teacher as well as Mrs. Pusateri, music teacher from St. Thomas Aquinas. Sure, St. Peter graduates stellar track and football stars, but it also offers so much more!!! And above all, the focus on the Catholic Identity with the priest visiting each class on a regular basis and interacting with the students on a 1:1 basis goes above and beyond. The tuition is a VALUE for what these children are offered.

My husband and I have two boys who go to St. Peter's. We LOVE it!!! The classes are smaller so the kids get the attention they deserve. The parents and teachers are so inovled, it is amazing!! Yes we could save some money and send our kids to public school, but that would cost our children soooo much more in the long run. This is an excellent school, I cannot put into words what it means to be a part of the St. Peter family!!!

Both of my daughters are currently enrolled at this school and they love going to school! The teaching staff really cares for the students and it shows from the assignments to the relationships that they develop with the children. I attended St. Peter's a long time ago and it's still the same warm and welcoming environment that makes for a great place to learn and develop.

My child is new to the school this year and is having a hard time adjusting. Some of the kids in the class have been very mean. I am regretting making the change, however, I am still hoping that things will change for the better in that respect. On the upside, the building is very clean and well-maintained and the staff for the most part has been responsive to inquiries and requests.

St. Peter's is an excellent school and we could not be happier that we chose to send our children to such a wonderful school. The school's faculty and staff is second to none. I would strongly encourage anyone who is interested or even curious to visit the school and learn more about the academic excellence of this school and its absolutely stunning church.
