St. Peter's Boys High School
Admissions
Applying to St.
Peter's
Saint Peter's High School seeks applicants who will strive for academic
excellence in a Catholic, college preparatory environment based on the
traditions of St. John de LaSalle.
Students are admitted based on the results of the TACHS (Test for
Admission to Catholic High Schools) exam given every November and their
elementary/middle school grades. Applicants will be equally considered
for admission. Incoming Freshman students are considered for a
scholarship if the student's TACHS exam is above the 90% percentile.
