WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE AN ACTIVE MEMBER OF ST. PETER’S LUHTERAN CHURCH??

The St. Peter’s School Handbook encourages all families to attend church 50% of the time.

This is a very important part of determining member and non-member tuition at St. Peter’s School. Member tuition rates will be charged based on the following guidelines:

• 50% church attendance at St. Peter’s Church August 1 – July 31, of the following year, member tuition rate will apply. If attendance of 50% or greater has not been met, non-member rates will be charged for the following school year.

Church attendance will be reviewed August 1st of each year to determine your tuition rate for the upcoming school year. Attendance will be recorded from attendance cards at church.
