Queen of Peace Catholic Academy is an educational community of Gainesville, Florida in which principal, teachers, staff, families, clergy, and parishioners work together to provide students with a spiritual, academic, psychological, and social foundation.

The Academy places focus on teaching and living the Gospel and the traditions of the Catholic Church. Equally, it gives emphasis to personal and communal spirituality, the fostering of strong community, and a commitment to those in need.
