Mary, Queen of Peace Catholic Elementary School is based on the uniqueness of each child and the partnership shared between the school and the family to help young people grow and mature into Catholic adults. Their style of learning is based within a vibrant and creative environment that is rooted in faith, worship and values. The curriculum follows not only the Archdiocesan curriculum guidelines, but state and national standards as well.

The school first opened in August, 1996 with only thirty-eight students attending Kindergarten, First, and Second grades within the church complex. DonahueFavret Contractors began construction on the permanent facility, using a conventional structural steel framing system retrofit with a standing seam metal roofing system. The exterior walls are constructed of masonry, with cement plaster soffits. In the fall of 1998, the new school building was opened, including nine classrooms, administrative offices, a full service cafeteria, and maintenance workshop. The finished project was completed in only 300 days.
