We Are St. Petronille
It would be hard to find a more nurturing environment for your children than what you’ll find at St. Petronille.
A superior education is at the core of it all, but what really sets us apart is a true dedication to enriching each individual student’s experience by bringing out the best in their unique talents—and instilling in them a desire to be outstanding members of the community long after their time at St. Pets. As a result, our graduates go into the world with a passion for learning, giving back and making a difference.

News and Announcements
Our fifth grade students did a wonderful job at their Explorers Wax Museum. Each student studied the journey of a famous European explorer for a month leading up to their big day. On Wax Museum morning, each student dressed up as their explorer and stood “waxed” in their still state. The explorers came to life when visitors pressed their virtual buttons, using maps and props to explain their accomplishments. Students in K-8, teachers, parents and grandparents enjoyed this educational, interactive and engaging event!
We are proud to offer $1,500 in tuition assistance to eligible students who transfer from a public school, non-Catholic private school, homeschool or charter school in grades 1-7.
Our second graders will be making their first communion on Saturday, April 28, 2018. They are in our prayers leading up to their exciting day!
Mr. Coyle is an Irish-born, award-winning singer-songwriter that teaches and inspires the St. Pets community every day. Read more about him at http://napervillemagazine.com/2017/02/dream-job-gavin-coyle/.
