The lessons in life and faith are being learned as the result of the school’s involvement in the Monarch Rescue Project, sponsored by the National Catholic Educational Association. Sts. Peter and Paul School received a $2,200 grant to research, plant and study the garden in the hopes of assisting the Monarch butterflies during their migration from the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico in April and May and back again in October.
NAUVOO, Ill. (WGEM) -- Christmas came early for one local school in the Tri-States, all because it gave back to its community in a big way. WGEM presented the students and staff at Saints Peter and Paul School in Nauvoo with a brand new iPad Thursday. The 72 pre-k through sixth grade students collected 1,402 items for the Nauvoo Food Pantry as part of the WGEM Fall Harvest School Challenge.
