On behalf of the Our Lady of Peace School community, I would personally like to express my heartfelt thanks for your generous donations to our school. Your contribution will allow us to renovate our playground and dedicate it to our beloved former Principal, Sr. Mary Dowden. Our playground will be named "Sr. Mary Dowden's Little Peace Playground." I know Sr. Mary will enjoy seeing the smiles on our student's faces as they play in our new playground. Your sacrifice is genuinely appreciated. Know you are in our prayers daily at OLP. Our “Day of Giving” link is closed, but donations are still being accepted. Please make checks payable to Our Lady of Peace School

Some Great Ideas That Help at Home Dr. Mel Levine, professor of pediatrics at UNC Medical School *Make a habit of sorting through your child's backpack every day. Take care of permission slips, absence notes and anything else that requires immediate attention. Remove any artwork and loose papers and decide whether you would like to save it. Consider an accordion file that can be easily used from year to year. *Establish a special homework spot. Younger children need to be encouraged to do their best work. This is a perfect time to review lessons taught in school with your children. *When homework is complete, help your child learn organizational skills. Help put things away and tidy up the work space. Anything that is needed for the following day should be placed in the backpack immediately. *Organize your doorway for a speedy exit by placing backpacks and other things that need to go to school, by the door, the night before, eliminating that last minute search!
