OLQP is a great school. Mrs. Signorili is a very hands on principal and takes the time to review all the kids test scores on each individual test through out the year. The kids and teachers strive harder to achieve because they know everyone from the top down is watching. Yet it's done in a spirit of community and achievement as opposed to Big Brother watching. The teachers are all very capable and most have been there a long time. The new core curriculum looks like it will be presenting it's own set of challenges throughout this city BUT Im confident OLQP will rise to the occasion on that. They do not fail their kids. I have three children in OLQP. I couldn't be happier.

A great school with challenging programs. A lot to do for the kids- drama,art, band, bricks for kids, chess, Girl Scouts, sports, etc... The teachers are very good- and there are no other words for the principal but amazing and hard working. She really knows her stuff and does put the children first.

Our Lady Queen of Peace School helps their students help the less fortunate. The students have plenty of opportunities to do charitable works. I commend them.

I love OLQP for some very important reasons. They have raised the bar on all learning opportunities, inside and outside the classroom. They work hard to create a community that promotes leadership as well as providing high quality academics, sports and the arts. It's not easy to find a school that works so hard to ensure that all those bases are covered. I really admire them for that.

Community ratings and reviews do not represent the views of GreatSchools nor does GreatSchools check their accuracy or verify the reviewers' identities. Use your discretion when evaluating these reviews.

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.
