HISTORY OF SCHOOL
Original School Building
Sts. Peter & Paul School is located at 210 North Vine Street, in the heart of Haubstadt, Indiana which has a population of 1,529. Our student population is predominantly white and of German-American descent, which reflects the composition of our middle-class community. We currently have 113 students, representing 86 families. In 1866 a one-story frame structure was built in Haubstadt where our present school now stands. Our school building has gone through many changes. Today’s Bedford stone structure is air-conditioned and includes: eleven classrooms, office, cafeteria, kitchen, and Kinder Haus Preschool. Our eleven classrooms include kindergarten through fifth grade plus a library, computer lab, fine arts room, resource room, and science lab. There is a total staff of twenty-two, including teachers, aides, custodial, cafeteria, office and administration personnel. A special preschool program for three and four year olds has a staff of four. The preschool, Kinder Haus, is a program of Sts. Peter & Paul School.
Many of Haubstadt’s residents were raised here and have remained here to raise their families. There is a great deal of pride in this community. That pride exhibits itself in many other facets of community life: work ethic, integrity, and support of children’s activities. Nearly two-thirds of the community is registered as part of our Sts. Peter & Paul Parish.
