What sets Prince of Peace Christian School apart? In some ways we are like other Christian schools in the Dallas area: we share a faith in God and provide a Christ-centered environment for learning. In other ways we are different: our status as a National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence, granted by the United States Department of Education, is a rare achievement that reflects the academic excellence of our programs and the achievements of our students. We earnestly strive to keep parents informed and help them be a part of 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.
