What The Parents Say
“I loved this school for my little girl. The staff and programs are fantastic. She thrived at Peace Christian.”
Eva
I am very pleased with Peace Christian Preschool. The staff is courteous, very friendly, and treat the children with kindness. The children all seem to know each other’s names (despite age difference) and have a true sense of community. Most importantly, the children seem genuinely happy to be at Peace Christian. I would highly recommend Peace Christian to any parent.
Sara
We have gone on to kindergarten, but we ran into our child’s teacher in the store the other day. My child was so excited. She had been worrying she would never see her teacher again.
John
Our daughter has attended Peace for 3 years and when it finally came time to leave for kindergarten she told me she didn’t want to leave.
Angela
My daughter is happy and thriving. We are so blessed to be a part of Peace Christian Preschool.
Dana
I feel blessed to have a Christian based school for my 3 year old daughter. They have worked very hard to help her achieve success with classmates. Her teacher is very sensitive to each child’s special needs. She is lucky to have a preschool that is able to prepare her for elementary school.
Clarissa
Peace provides a strong spiritual and academic foundation in the classroom. The children learn to pray, worship and learn quickly in a safe and loving environment. My older two children got a great start at Peace years ago and so I brought my youngest to get the same. The staff is wonderful.
Beth
We could not be happier with the care and early childhood education that our children receive from Peace Christian Preschool. We extremely appreciate the level of communication that we share with the teachers and caregivers in each classroom level and have seen excellent progress in our children. Thank you all so much for all you do!
