Prince Of Peace School

Registration for Vacation Bible School 2021 is now open! VBS 2021 is headed to present-day Israel where discovery awaits at Destination Dig! Kids will unearth more than dirt as they dig up exciting evidence that proves biblical events were not just stories. As junior archaeologists, kids will explore real-life archaeological finds that have helped to uncover the truth about Jesus! Along the way, they’ll discover the truth of Jeremiah 29:13, that God reveals Himself to us when... we seek and search for Him with all our hearts. VBS will be in a hybrid model this year due to COVID-19. The in-person option has a maximum capacity of 250 kids. For in-person VBS, we are following CDC, County and State guidelines as they pertain to COVID-19 at the time of VBS.

Our flag does not fly because the wind moves it. It flies with the last breath of each soldier who died protecting it. Unknown We remember and honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice for freedom. Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13... #memorialday2021 #rememberandhonor

Welcome back Mrs. Cid!

We want to give a big shoutout and heartfelt THANK YOU to our Head of Schools, Mr. Dueck, for filling in as Principal while Mrs. Cid was on her maternity leave. We can’t express how much we appreciate all the time and energy you’ve put in these past few months to help our POP students and families navigate schooling and learning during a National pandemic. Thank you for your encouragement and continued support! Mrs. Cid, we want to officially welcome you back! Congratulation...s on your new beautiful baby girl! We hope you were able to rest and enjoy time with your family these past few months, and we thank you also for your continued support during these uncertain times. The POP community truly appreciates you both! We are excited to move forward together as we continue to enjoy the same-but different POP Experience. #thankyou #principal #headofschools #welcomeback #samebutdifferent #popfremontca #popchristianschool

We love seeing our POP community join in chapel with their children on Fridays! First grade mom, Deanna Kilbride says, Watching Friday chapel together is Parker’s favorite part of his week.

We hope you all have a wonderful Friday and happy and safe weekend!!! ... #samebutdifferent #distancelearning #happyweekend #fridaychapel #popschoolfremont #popfremontca

**updated with game results: the correct answer is paper route!! Thanks for playing!! Who’s ready for our next POP get to know you game?? This time it’s all about 8th grade homeroom and Jr. High teacher, Mr. Berg! ... Mr. Berg is from Washington state, has 4 siblings, and his favorite season is Fall. Did you know that Mrs Berg is a twin?!! How cool! When asked if he could sit down with anyone in the world and have a conversation with them, who would it be, he answered, Jesus in human form. He also said if he could go anywhere in the world it would be Israel. If Mr. Berg could have any super power it would be to make avocados appear; which makes sense since avocados are his favorite food!! His favorite thing about teaching at POP is the opportunity to teach from a faith perspective and his hobby is running! Now it’s your turn to guess something about Mr. Berg!! What was Mr. Berg’s first job that he ever had?? Was it: a) paper route b) barista at Starbucks c) front desk clerk at a hotel d) dog walker Comment below with your best guess!!! Mr. Berg, thank you for all you do for your students and fellow co-workers here at POP. We appreciate you!! #gettingtoknowyou #popstaff #popfremontca #popchristianschool #gametime
