Summary Our Lady of
Peace School, under the direction of the Diocese of Charleston,
was founded in 1956. The school is a fully accredited,
multi-cultural, Christian-based school serving Grades K3–8 with
before- and after-care available. All religions and races are
welcome. The school is located in North Augusta, South
Carolina.
Curriculum The school
curriculum includes religion, language arts (reading, English,
spelling, penmanship, phonics, writing, grammar, literature),
mathematics, science, social studies (geography, history,
sociology, and economics), computers, library skills, physical
education, and Spanish.
Mission
and Program The mission of
Our Lady of Peace School is to provide a comprehensive
educational program for the complete development of its students
in a Christian environment. We help students grow towards
maturity in faith and prepare them for life-long learning.
Consequently, there are four areas that we stress in developing
the “whole child”: spiritual, educational, physical, and
social.
Registration (Click for More Information)
Registration for the next school year is taken on a
space-available basis. The registration fee is nonrefundable.
Our class sizes are limited to ensure a low student-to-teacher
ratio, so early registration is recommended. A birth
certificate and record of immunization are required. To
ensure the success of your child, children who apply for
admission to Our Lady of Peace School are screened to assess
readiness for the academic program. Placement is not considered
final until testing and initial observation are complete and
previous school records are obtained. Parents are expected to
support the philosophy of the school. A multiple child discount
is available. Subsidies and financial aid are also available
for active parishioners of Our Lady of Peace Catholic Church and
St. Edward’s Catholic Church. School lunch is provided under
the Federal School Lunch Program. Hot lunches are served daily,
at a nominal fee. We hope you will give us the opportunity to
join you in educating your child both academically and
spiritually.
If you have any
questions or if you would like to visit the school, please call
