What makes Queen of Peace school Unique
Our Lady Queen of Peace School offers a holistic Catholic education for grades K4 through 8th rooted deeply in our Catholic faith, academic rigor, and social responsibility. We are a close-knit, supportive community where every child is known, respected, and loved. Our dedicated educators and staff are deeply committed to our students' spiritual, physical, and academic growth.
Philosophy
We, the faculty of Our Lady Queen of Peace School, a Catholic community, believe that children are a gift from God, given to us temporarily to love and to teach. They are intrinsically good, are eager to learn, and have unique talents. We believe children need and have the right to receive love, acceptance, understanding, support and guidance in order to discover and develop their own gifts and talents, so they may become more Christ-like and responsible members of our world community. School, as an extension of the home, should provide positive experiences that stimulate and motivate each child to achieve his or her full potential in an atmosphere of security, faith development, academic excitement and social interaction. Our Lady Queen of Peace School has the responsibility to be a community of faith where members teach and model the message of Jesus and inspire each other to embrace service.
