Why Choose Saint Peter’s Catholic School?

Unlike charter and other public schools, we can educate the entire child: intellectually, emotionally, physically, AND spiritually. We partner with parents to help your child be everything God created them to be. Our goal is for your children to go to Harvard, if desired, but even more importantly, to go to heaven!

We would love for you to give us a call at (843) 522-2163 and come for a tour!

the Whole Child

We Care for
Each Student

Prayer is a normal part of life at Saint Peter’s. When one of our students was seriously ill in the hospital, we were able to pray the rosary as a school for her recovery.

We Pray in School
Every Day

Students develop a faith foundation for life at Saint Peter’s. Students pray together at Mass every week and are introduced to the many treasures of our Catholic faith.

We Live Our
Catholic Faith

Our students experience the faith in beautiful ways throughout the school day. Students practice their penmanship, for example, with phrases teaching about Scripture and faith.

We Experience

How can I learn more?

Please give us a call at the school office (843-522-2163). We would love to speak with you and answer your questions, and we can schedule a school tour for you. God bless you!

Do you take 3-year-olds?

Yes, we educate from K3 through sixth grade. Parents typically find our K3 to be more affordable than daycare, and a great experience for their child!

What happens after sixth grade?

We are happy to now have the blessing of Catholic education in our area all the way through 12th grade. Most of our graduates continue their education at John Paul II Catholic School, which takes them from 7th grade on through high school. We have a bus that takes them each day from Beaufort to John Paul II.

Is tuition assistance available?

Yes, we have scholarships and tuition assistance available. We will work hard with each family to ensure that every child can receive the blessing of a Christ-centered education. Please do not let financial concerns keep you from reaching out to us.

But other schools are free.

Can you put a price on the spiritual development of your child? Parents who switch from public school are often amazed at the change that starts to happen in the hearts of their children. The children are helped to fall in love with Jesus, and this radiates to all parts of their lives.
