Saints Peter & Paul Community Page

Saints Peter & Paul has a strong reputation as a loving and diverse community. Organically, without conscious effort, the demographics of the children at Saints Peter & Paul School closely parallel the demographics of Tucson’s Catholic Community. SSPP families self identify as 28.9% White, 58.4% Latino, 1.5% African American, 1.1% Asian American, 1.5% American Indian and 8.6% as Multi-Racial. SSPP, not just ethnically diverse, but is also reflective in the socio-economic diversity of the Tucson area. SSPP families include business owners, police officers, lawyers, nurses, doctors, dieticians, professors, delivery drivers, secretaries, loan officers, mechanics, plumbers, electricians, postal workers, mechanics, teachers, laborers, sales associates, and house keepers. School administration prides itself on handling financial aid very discreetly which, along with a strict uniform policy, allows children to feel equally a part of the School community no matter their family’s means.

There is also a tremendous community among Saints Peter & Paul Parents. This is a direct result of the Parental Commitment requirement. Every SSPP family is required to give 68 hours of Parental Commitment volunteer time to the school every academic year. This is one of the best things about the school. Children do better in school and get more out of the educational process when parents play an active role in their children’s education. The Parental Commitment program enhances the child’s educational experience by creating a sense of community and spirit of cooperation in the School. Working together to support our children helps to create a close relationship between the parents, teachers and administrators that lasts for years.

In this day and age the community continues on line:
