Prince of Peace School exists to offer the children of the Steelton Tri- community, a quality, Catholic education.
We profess, by word and example, to instill a faith-rooted value system and academic excellence in preparing the leaders of the future in our Church and our country.
Prince of Peace School strives to create a loving, supportive educational environment that is responsive to the needs of the individual student.
We seek to challenge students according to their particular needs, recognizing that each child is a unique creation of God who has been given special gifts and talents.
In order to educate the whole child, the school is committed to meeting the spiritual, intellectual and physical needs of each student.
The Parish school is an extension of the education that begins in the home.
Its purpose is to strengthen and develop behaviors necessary to provide well-rounded and knowledgeable citizens for our Catholic Church, our communty and our country.
