Our 2 kids have attended POP for the past 5 yrs and we love the small class sizes, the care of all the teachers and the more individualized approach to education. It's also the most affordable Christian education in the valley. Wish they had a high school!

Our son has been attending Prince of Peace for 5 years now. We are amazed at how much he has learned these years. Prince of Peace has been nurturing our son both academically through their standards and spiritually through the Bible. Our son loves and enjoys going to school. If you are looking for a school that values education and Christian values then Prince of Peace is the best place for you!

This school has been wonderful! My daughters and I moved here from out of state and the staff here welcomed us with open arms. The teachers care greatly, are very talented, the curriculum is wonderful and the peace of mind that my kid was safe and receiving a quality God-centered education is priceless. The smaller class sizes also allow for kids to advance (or slow) their education according to their own needs, yet still within a great class structure. I love the smaller class sizes, as well as the integration of Pre-K to 8th grade, and as the older kids look out for the younger ones, the younger kids have great older role models and look up to the bigger kids. Everyone knows you and your student. There is much grace and love here, plus wonderful academics, sports, art & music. It is truly amazing what this school has managed to accomplish and pack in for the kids despite having limited numbers. My daughter was introduced to volleyball, basketball, chimes, and other things she didn't realize she even had an interest in until she tried them here. Their basketball team recently won 3rd place in an out-of-state tournament (in WI at the Luther Preparatory School) against many teams with bigger, talented players. If you have any doubts about this school, just have a visit and see for yourself!

This school is unbelievable. From the pastors to the principal- excellent. I feel welcomed every single time I am at the school. The teachers are willing to work on any issues I have. They listen to me and my concerns. The principal, Mr. Paulsen always greets us. Everyone greets us. The church is the best community I have ever had.

This school has truly taken education to another level, I love how my children learn about God and academics. This is an investment worth every dime for my children because they are the future generation and they are learning how to love God, love people, and love school.

This is our 1st year at PoPs for our kindergarten child but was not new to a Christian School. We like the options of half-day and full days of kindergarten, the small class size, and that she is learning about Christ as well.
