Christmas is right around the corner everyone! As you all know, Christmas tunes play a major role in setting the mood for the holidays. No matter the song, Christmas tunes always bring forth warmth and joy during the holiday season.

  Even after many responses, “O’ Holy Night” is the overwhelming favorite among the faculty at St. Peter’s Prep. “All I Want for Christmas Is You” was also a favorite among the staff and for good reason; you can never go wrong with Mariah Carey. From all of us here at Petroc, we’d like to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
