Bring your talents to St. Peter. We offer a supportive environment with dedicated leadership and parents.
Employment with St Peter is more than just a job; it is service to the Church, which is the Body of Christ. As Catholics, we hold that “work represents a fundamental dimension of human existence as participation not only in the act of creation but also in that of redemption” (Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church, 263).
Work is an act of sanctification; in other words, it is a path to holiness. Sanctity is made up of heroic acts, which many assume to mean great tasks and huge endeavors. However, even the most ordinary endeavors can become heroic acts.
A Catholic school is a core ministry of this Parish and Catholic education is a specialized ministry in the Church. Education is integral to the mission of the Church to proclaim the good news. First and foremost, every Catholic institution is a place to encounter the Living God, who in Jesus Christ, reveals His transforming love and truth (Pope Benedict XVI, Address to Catholic Educators, April 17, 2008). The purpose of education is to elevate the human person so that he or she may reflect more deeply and completely the image of God.
In guiding students to reflect the image of God in our world, Catholic school administration, teachers, and staff, engaged in this specialized ministry, cultivate academic and moral excellence in an educational culture intentionally animated by the Catholic faith.
Compensation Philosophy
While maintaining fiscal responsibility, St Peter is committed to compensating staff in a manner that is consistent, reflective of the external market, and appropriate to St Peter’s financial circumstances. Compensation is also designed to provide recognition for the achievement of institutional goals and professional competency. Specifically, the goal of our compensation program is to achieve the following objectives:
Internal equity.
External equity.
Increased performance and productivity.
Compliance with laws and regulations.
Administrative efficiency.
Professional Development
St Peter encourages employees to enhance their knowledge and skills and to network with other professionals, thus improving potential for future opportunities. For development purposes, employees may need to attend training seminars or workshops conducted off-site or join professional organizations that will enable them to remain abreast of best practices in their respective fields.
With the written approval of their supervisor, employees may be permitted to attend off-site seminars, conferences, or workshops that will be paid for by St Peter, subject to annual budgets established for external training and memberships. The training events attended must have a direct relationship to the job the employee performs. For work scheduling purposes, the employee’s request for attendance must be received at least one month in advance of the event and the employee’s supervisor must approve the request.
Employees may also be permitted to join one professional association, with membership fees paid for by St Peter. The association selected must have a direct relationship to the job the employee performs. Additional professional associations may be joined with prior written permission from your supervisor. St Peter reserves the right to determine which training functions and association memberships are in the best interests of St Peter and its future planning and direction.
