Cardinal Pacelli School, the Catholic elementary school of Our Lord Christ the King Church in Mt. Lookout, Cincinnati, offers a balanced approach to education based on the intellectual, social, and spiritual needs of each child. Students learn within a thriving parish community where small classes, Blue Ribbon academics, Christian values, and an atmosphere of nurturing provide a solid foundation for future success. The quality of Pacelli’s educational programs are the result of a commitment to excellence. We are pleased to offer Spanish in grades K-8, integrated technology and a new science lab, a test preparation class for 8th graders, and numerous opportunities for service-learning projects, such as our Twinning relationship with the Obuasi Diocese in Ghana.
