St. Peter Athletic Program is available to all students from grades five through eight. Third and Fourth grade students may be eligible to participate in cheerleading (see Athletic Handbook for specific policy). St. Peter offers basketball, volleyball, cheerleading and track as part of the Athletic program. To participate in these sports, students must maintain academic eligibility by receiving passing grades in all subjects and not be on probation (see Athletic Handbook for specific policy).
This program is made possible through the generous services extended to our children by volunteers. All parents/guardians who have student athletes participating in any Athletic Communities sponsored event/sport/program will be expected to volunteer their services for home games and tournaments during the course of the sport(s) season. Additional information request or questions about the athletic program should be referred to the Athletic Director(s). Also, see the Athletic Committee Handbook.
Athlete's Prayer
God, Let me play well but fairly,
Help me to learn something that matters once the game is over.
Let competition make me strong but never hostile.
Always let me help my opponent up.
Never catch me rejoicing in the adversity of others.
If I know victory, allow me to be happy;
if I am denied, keep me from envy.
Remind me that sports are just games.
If through athletics I set an example, let it be a good one.
