Welcome to a frozen Monday Morning Magic! 🥶 Seems like winter is here for awhile, whether the Groundhog saw his shadow or not!

Celebrating two weeks of birthdays, and Mrs. Tell shared a new project for February - Random acts of kindness! Students and teachers can recognize others and will write their names on hearts which we will put outside the classrooms.

Virtue Awards for the week: Mrs. Roseboro recognized Lillianna, Alexandra, and Luke for braving the freezing cold to carry big boxes out to the car. Ms. Weed honored Cristian for his FAITH - he was baptized this week! And Mrs. Hall acknowledged Piper for her CHARITY, for taking notes for a student who was out. Miss Campanell gave Aaliyah an award for her PRUDENCE - for stepping up to take care of all kinds of classroom jobs last week.

Saints Circles: Sunday’s gospel was the Sermon on the Mount, which we call The Beatitudes. How can we find happiness by living these teachings in our school? Better yet, which of our St. Peter Root Beliefs do your answers respond to?

Blessed are the Poor in Spirit - We can pray before a test. Root Belief: Our Catholic faith is the center of every thing we do!

Blessed are they who mourn - You can take time out of your day to pray for people who are hurting. Root Belief: We believe in encouraging one another.

Blessed are the meek - If you want to play a different game at recess, you can just go along with what someone else wants to do. Root Belief: We believe we can be a positive influence on others.

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness - Try not to gossip and betray other people. Root Belief: We believe that we matter and deserve respect.

Blessed are the merciful - sit next to someone at lunch to inspire others to do the same. Root Belief: We believe that kindness is contagious.

Blessed are the pure of heart - We can be honest to our teachers about the work that we are doing. Root Belief: We believe that knowledge is a superpower.

Blessed are the peacemakers - If two people are arguing you can try to diffuse the situation. Root Belief: We believe that we matter and deserve respect.

And now we're off to another wonderful week!

Monday Morning Magic January 12, 2026! We started with announcements: Saints of Service will be making sandwiches for Cathedral Kitchen this week -- grades SIX, SEVEN this week (Oh, okay FINE, Mrs. O let them all say it 🙄🤷🏽‍♀️) Next week the whole school will be participating in a service project to honor Martin Luther King, Jr.! Virtue Awards: Mrs. Roseboro recognized Leah M in first grade for PRUDENCE - asking to finish her work before starting playtime. And Miss M honored Jackson for his FAITH for saying the Lord’s Prayer loudly and proudly at Mass this week. Saints Circles: Jesus was a Priest, Prophet and King for all people. How can we act as priests, prophets and kings in our lives? Priests bring people close to God. How can we bring others closest to God? - Invite others to church with you - Praying with others - Love people even if they aren’t always nice to you - Following along with Mass - Never be afraid to talk about Jesus! Prophets speak God’s truth and speak it boldly! How can we speak up for God in the face of so much in our world working against him? - Singing in church! - Encouraging people to pray more - Being responsible and doing what is expected of you Kings serve and lead others. How can we do the same? - Small acts of kindness - Talking to people you don’t know - Helping people they don’t know - Including others in games and conversations And with that we're off to another great week, Saints! #SouthJerseyCatholicSchools #Virtues

St. Peter students had a great surprise this week--a visit with Shevin McCullough from Studio 3:16! Studio 3:16 is the religion program for grades 4, 5, and 6--even our 8th graders were so excited to meet the "silly guy" from their elementary school Religion videos! Studio 3:16 lessons focus on a video centered on a Catholic teaching, followed by discussion, prayer, and challenges from the Gospels for students to take into their own lives. Beginning in January, St. Peter will be participating in a pilot program for families with Studio 3:16--so be on the lookout for some take home challenges! Shevin greeted students after school on Monday, then came back for a quick assembly and Q&A with students. He signed lots of autographs and students were thrilled to get high fives and selfies! #SouthJerseyCatholicSchools #DiscoverCatholocSchoolsWeek

St. Peter Rising Stars Present: Matilda, Jr! Enjoy these rehearsal photos...and join us this weekend for the full play! Matilda has astonishing wit, intelligence... and special powers! She's unloved by her cruel parents but impresses her schoolteacher, the highly loveable Miss Honey. Matilda's school life isn't completely smooth sailing, however – the school's mean headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, hates children and just loves thinking up new punishments for those who don't abide by her rules. But Matilda has courage and cleverness in equal amounts, and could be the school pupils' saving grace! St. Peter Rising Stars is the performing arts program for grades 3-5 at St. Peter School. Directed by Mrs. Sarah Duvall Pearson Thursday, November 20, 7 PM Friday, November 21, 7 PM Saturday, November 22, 1 PM Tickets available here: https://forms.diamondmindinc.com/stpeterschool/matilda-tickets-2025 Tickets also available at the door; cash-only.
