Prince of Peace Catholic School

"Our family has been a part of the Prince of Peace Catholic Church and School community since 2009 when we returned to the upstate. Our middle child graduated in 2016 and our youngest graduated 8th grade last year. Our youngest attended Prince of Peace since K4 and we've had a great experience with both of them. My wife and I got married at Prince of Peace many many years ago and we were back in the upstate for our children to receive First Communion and Confirmation at Prince of Peace. Starting with the Priests, Deacons, Principal, teachers, school staff and classmates, the Prince of Peace community has been amazing. Excellent role models for the students. We would recommend this school without a doubt. The school has an excellent academic rigor and Catholic identity that help students to grow in the image of God. Truly dedicated to the spiritual and academic growth of the students, we love them!!"

"We have been at Prince of Peace Catholic School since 2010. We have seen people come and people go is not for everyone, but if you want an excellent education and a family atmosphere where your children will be cared for and taught to love one another and God, then Prince of Peace is the place to be. Our family will be at Prince of Peace for another 7 years. Our boys have done very well academically, socially and spiritually and I believe that they will continue to grow and excel. Prince of Peace plants the seed for the love of God and the pursuit of excellence. So, if you are looking for a traditional Catholic Church and school in the Upstate of South Carolina, then Prince of Peace is where you should be."

"Our family has been a part of the Prince of Peace Catholic Church and School community for the past two years. When looking for a school to educate our child, we wanted a school that was authentically Catholic, had an excellent academic track record, as well as a genuine and caring community. POPCS has exceeded our expectations in all of these areas. Our child has grown tremendously in the past two years thanks to the loving and nurturing environment of the school."

"Great choice, if you want hardback books thrown at your child's head by a old so-called priest (Tomlinson). Yes it happened. In my daughter's class when she was in second grade. NOTHING was done to him. No disciplinary measures, nothing. The school then imploded when Chris Smith decided to get involved in the school's affairs. The headmaster, Dr. Pennel, immediately resigned for a new job in Texas and the faculty followed suit. A mass exodus, if you will. We removed my daughter at the end of term and placed her in another private school. Thank God and good riddance. One star = Zero stars."

"We can’t be more thankful we found Prince of Peace Catholic Church and School when my husband and I moved here over 12 years ago. As transplants from Maryland with family hours away, Prince of Peace has become our second family. From the birth and baptism of both of our sons to both now being enrolled in our wonderful faith-filled and academically challenging parish school, we are truly blessed to call it our spiritual home. If you are looking for a traditional Catholic Church and school in the Upstate of South Carolina, then consider visiting Prince of Peace."
