Student Life
Pope John Paul the Great Catholic High School is a place of higher learning, but it is also a place to build lasting friendships through faith experiences, social activities, organized clubs and sports, and service projects.
Opportunities are nearly endless for students who want to participate in an established club, or start a new one! Help us build the culture at John Paul the Great!

Faith Life
Together we will strive to grow in wisdom and holiness by living lives rooted in Christ, and in accord with the teachings of the Catholic Church. Prayer, devotion, and right-living are not afterthoughts, but rather fundamental elements of our school community. Students and Staff have opportunities to pray together and alone during Mass, Eucharistic Adoration, Reconciliation services, while on youth retreats, and in many other ways and times. We build community within, so that we can have a positive effect on the community at-large.
Schedule for Sacraments: (Times subject to change without notice)
MASS: Mass is celebrated in the chapel unless noted otherwise. Parents of students are welcome to attend Mass, but must sign in at the front desk and obtain a visitor pass at least 10 minutes before the beginning of Mass.
CONFESSION: Tuesdays and Fridays during lunch (for students and staff only). Mondays and Thursdays after school.
EUCHARISTIC ADORATION: Monday through Friday at 6am and First Fridays as announced.
