Peace With Christ Christian School is located in Aurora, Colorado, a southeastern suburb of Denver.
It is one of nearly 3000 Lutheran pre-schools, elementary, and high schools in the United States.
The idea developed quickly and our school opened its doors in August, 1994.
PWCCS began with an enrollment of 60 students in kindergarten through 8th grade.
There were four full-time teachers and a full-time teaching principal.
Many parent volunteers filled in the gaps. Classrooms were combined into K, 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, and 7-8.
The school shared the remodeled lower level of Peace With Christ Lutheran Church with its previously established Early Learning Center.
Recently, we have introduced Computer Classes to our curriculum, greatly enhanced our playground with new equipment and had the grand opening of our school library.
We now offer a school band program, several choruses, a Student Council and advanced math classes.

As the mother of a 1st grade boy who's finishing his first year at PWCCS, I''ve got to say that I am so pleased and completely impressed by this school. The staff at PWCCS are caring and attentive with students and parents. The academic and spiritual curriculum are well balanced and thorough. And I love how organized everything is. PWCCS is also an incredibly active school, with school-wide events throughout the year. I love the small class size, the school's active interest in using the advances of technology to aid in teaching and I love the open lines of communication we parents have with everyone at the school -- from the principal, to the teachers, to other parents as well. And one more very important reason I love this school -- my son is thriving there. We are looking forward to next year.
