ADMISSIONS POLICY
Preference for admission to Our Lady of Peace School is extended to children whose parents are active members of the parish, who are moving into the parish or have siblings in attendance. Students will be accepted if they reside out of parish providing there are vacancies. Attendance in the Our Lady of Peace Pre-K program does not guarantee admission to our Kindergarten. The child must be re-registered and screened. Acceptance is based upon the criteria stated above.

Children of other faiths are expected to be present for and participate in religious classes and celebrations since we do not have special supervision during these times.
