Prince Of Peace Christian School
School Notes Overview:
What sets Prince of Peace Christian School apart from other schools? In some ways, we are like all Christian schools in the Dallas area: we share a faith in God and we provide a Christ-centered environment for learning. In other ways, we are very different: we are recognized as a National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence by the United States Department of Education, a distinction that reflects the academic excellence of our programs and the achievements of our students. We earnestly strive to keep parents informed so that they play an active role in their child's education. But what really makes our institution unique is our comprehensive approach to every student's progress as an individual, a citizen and a spiritual being....
