Our Lady Queen of Peace School is a five-star school! This school provides an academically challenging environment, while consistently showing the children a very loving 'family' atmosphere. OLQP students are taught about respect, discipline and striving for the top. The wonderful staff are extremely dedicated and lead by a fabulous principal. The curriculum is second to none and my children are receiving a great education. Our family loves this school.

This school has consistently provided my children with a quality education year after year. OLQP School has very high standards & a challenging curriculum. Good work and study habits are taught from early on. This school provides a safe and civilized environment. The principal is hard working, innovative and professional. She has hired an excellent teaching staff. She is also very supportive of her students & their parents.

I've been a parent at the school for five years. This school offers a tremendous learning environment, quality teaching staff and outstanding leadership from a wonderful principal. The children are taught to be kind, respectful and value education. It is truly a wonderful place and the only place for my children!

I have recently graduated from this school, and truthfully it was the most educating and fulfilling grammar school. When I grow older, I would definately consider sending my children there. Besides the great teachers, everything was so interesting there. The teachers would make sure that you got the information, and if you didnt get it, they always had time to explain.

I would definitely rate this school as a 5. Contrary to the only other review on line, the staff at this school are very commited and work well with administration. I have been involved with this school for many years, have put both my children in it and not only are they a caring 'family', but they also instill values and set examples for those values. The teacher, child ratio is a wonderful plus and you would never have any of our teachers 'walk out' on our children because of contract disputes.

Teaching staff seem not to be supportive of administration resulting in conflicts among teachers and principal. Would not recommend sending anyone to this school. School always seems to be in transition, with staff and administration.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.

Oops! We currently do not have any student information for this school. We rely on the state Department of Education, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), and in some cases school administrators such as registrars and principals for this data.
