Programs

Saints Peter and Paul follows the curriculum standards outlined by the Office of Catholic Schools in the Diocese of Grand Rapids. Click here to explore the standards.

​

The curriculum framework is structured to be comprehensive in scope. There are three parts: encounter, grow, and witness. Throughout students’ experiences in our Catholic schools, they are provided with intentional moments to encounter Jesus Christ through activities such as participating in Mass, receiving the sacraments, and acts of service. Students grow in their understanding of Church teaching in all subject areas, including a renewed rigor in their understanding of Catholic theology. They are also empowered to witness God’s love to the world. The three parts of the paradigm are not intended to be steps in a sequence, but an integrated framework throughout a student’s experience, rooted in the pillars of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. This paradigm leads the faithful into a life of discipleship.
