I remember my kindergarten years. I was in G.E Peter's Hyattsville. I loved that school and still do. Then came the boarding school abroad which was great but G.E Peter's prepared me for anything. I miss the calm principal and my teachers. If I am ever blessed by kids, that's where I will be sending them.

G. E. Peters may very well be the best school I've ever attended. The teachers truly care about the well-being and education of their students, and push them to explore and cultivate their talents in ways that no other school can do. It's been over a decade since I graduated, but I feel like I learned more here than I did in high school and college combined. If you choose to send your student here, I promise they'll be in great hands!

My children have attended George E. Peters Adventist school since they were in Kindergarten. The teachers are very attentive, caring and are truly passionate about students reaching their best potential. The care and dedication they give to each and every student is the reason why the graduates are beyond their years in academics and character. Failure is not an option at this school. Keep up the good work teachers and staff. G. E Peters will be around for many many years to come!

I used to go to that school. How I miss it so! Besides the uniform, it was the best school ever. The staff/administration was mind-blowingly awesome, and I made so much friends there.

This is a relatively small school with an excellent and rigorous adademic program. Academics are challenging but teachers and parents work together to ensure that each student is able to reach his personal best. Teachers are well trained and have a passion for their profession. Music, art, sports and other programs are availble for students. Great principal and administrative team. Wonderful educational experience!
