Children's Learning Center

Mission Statement

The Children’s Learning Center at Prince of Peace Catholic School promotes Catholic values in a nurturing, dynamic learning community by providing for the intellectual, emotional and spiritual growth of each student and by building a strong foundation for lifelong success.

Where children are valued
For their ability to play,
For their wonder and curiosity,
For their perspectives,
And for their potential.

Where families are valued for their traditions,
For their commitment to God, home, and community,
And for their dreams for their children

Where faculty members are valued for their visions,
For their delight in children,
And for their skill, knowledge, and heart

When can I enroll?

New family enrollment typically occurs in February. You will be notified of your admission in writing in mid-March.

We do maintain an active waiting list and will fill openings throughout the school year. Our waiting list does not continue from one year to the next.
