New Multi-Factor Authentication Requirement for your FACTS Account
Dear St. Peter Catholic School families,
Beginning late September, FACTS will begin requiring multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all non-student users when logging into your online account to access FACTS SIS.
FACTS recommends that all users utilize a free authenticator app, such as Authy, Microsoft Authenticator, or Google Authenticator, or receive an authentication email containing a unique code.
If you have any questions related to the process, please contact FACTS at 866.441.4637
Sincerely,
Rose Thoenen
Asst. Technology Director
St. Peter Catholic School

Beginning September 1, 2025, the fee for credit card transactions will move to 3.05%. This slight change reflects the rising costs imposed by credit card companies and ensures we can continue to offer convenient payment options while maintaining the quality of our services.
As always, alternative payment methods, such as ACH, are available at no additional cost.
With the speed of change in education and technology continuing to increase, FACTS remains committed to providing our schools with the most comprehensive technology and trusted support available, at the best value possible.

After Care News
Finally, we were able to get outside this week! Yay! I have a couple more reminders: First, since play rehearsals begin next week, please send me ONE general email if your student will be attending practices and if they will return to ASC afterward. I can figure out when your student will be in rehearsal. Yes, I have decoded it and can help you too! Secondly, Aftercare employs teenagers who change yearly and have to learn all the students. We do our best to retrieve your children as quickly as we can, and we apologize if you are kept waiting a while. Please be patient, we will get it. Thank you. You may reach me, Betsy Bartow at bbartow@stpeterjc.org or (573) 636-8922 ext.129.

- To Participate: that is, to use one’s time and talents to strengthen the parish community and advance the Gospel.
- To Sacrificially Give: that is, pledge and remain current on a tithe of financial first fruits to support the life and ministries of the parish. The goal is 8% to the parish and 2% to other worthy charities.
