1st Grade enjoying this beautiful day!☀️💚💛💜
The SPS News Crew back in full swing! The SPS News starts our day with morning prayer, the weather report (and therefore, gym and recess expectations!), Saint of the Day, our Root Beliefs, and important school news (YES, the Snack Shack is finally open for business!) Students in grades 5-8 are all welcome to help lead!

First Monday Morning Magic Assembly of the school year! Kindergarten, 1st & 2nd grade all have💯 attendance; Kindergarten wins the drawing for🍩🍩🍩 ! Happy birthday to our early September babies 🎂
Lots of virtue excellence this year already....Ms. Weed recognized Joey for CHARITY for sharing all his toys on the playground. Miss Campanell awarded Hannah for her FORTITUDE in adjusting so quickly in her first week at SPS. Mrs. Tell congratulated Paul on his FORTITUDE for keeping his Kindergarten Prayer Buddy quiet during Mass. And Miss Marrazzo acknowledged Max for his CHARITY and always being the first to raise his hand to help out when needed.👋
Then we're into our small group discussions...a little getting to know you with our brand-new 8th graders in charge. Then, Mrs. O'Callaghan asked us to set a goal for the school year. We're focusing on our punctuality and timeliness this year. Here are some of the ones our students came up with:
- Learning Catholic Prayers
- Turn in homework on time
- Read more
- Participate in class more
- Go to bed on time💤 (so it's not so hard to wake up in the morning!)
- And Jaiden set himself a goal to make the Principal's List! 💯💯
All in all we're kicking off a great year here at SPS!

Welcome Back! We're so happy you're here!
Tomorrow you'll see them back in their natural habitat, but we let a few of our teachers escape the school for the summer....and they sure did get out and about!

Our faculty orientation was yesterday! Teachers worked on our School Root Beliefs and illustrated how they can live them out and be positive examples for our students.
Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Rotondi!

#FlashbackFriday to Kindergarten graduation! Thank you Mrs. Lammers for all your hard work in helping us get ready for 1st grade! ❤️#SouthJerseyCatholicSchools
Current situation at SPS! Parking lots resurfaced, Floors being cleaned, waxed,and buffed; rugs getting a deep clean...and furniture all over the place! Thanks to our friends at Stanley Steemer in Pennsauken and Kevin J. Bailey & Son Plumbing for their help with these cleaning and repair projects, to St. Peter Church Knights of Columbus for their help moving furniture in & out of the classrooms, and of course to Ms. Maryanne & Mr. Keith for all their hard work with the finishing touches! We are open Monday through Thursday from 8-12, and we're ready for Catapult summer program to begin. However, if you have items to deliver (like uniforms), we'd appreciate it if you could hold off until after July 4, so we have a place to put it! :) We expect the biggest school projects to be finished by then. And then.....we're on to the gym... 👀 Stay tuned for details!
