Christ, Prince of Peace School is a co-ed Catholic school in west St. Louis County enrolling students 3 years of age through 8th grade. We inspire students to achieve academic excellence, deepen their faith, develop social responsibility through service learning and foster lifelong friendships. Our school is alive with vibrant faculty, energized students and committed and caring parents. We have a mission and a purpose to “Inspire Faith and Learning” and this is woven into all we do at CPOP.
The school is supported by and an integral part of the parish. Together they form a community that many find very unique. A lot of the boundaries common to our daily life just don't exist at CPOP, and it allows us to celebrate and foster growth of the whole person, together. In that growth is grounded our faith, and a strong desire to help others, such that service and ministry are not "things" - they're a way of life.
Christ, Prince of Peace School and Parish serves the community around them, not just limited to those seeking to participate in faith ministry. All are welcome, and we run a number of very popular programs for kids including recreational sports. Our parishioners manage a number of different food and shelter insecurity outreach programs, and we are a consistent resource for a number of programs in the area to push for additional resources as needs come up, among many other ongoing efforts. It is critical to the surrounding community that we are able to keep our doors open, our members active and visible, and our children inspired and learning.
