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.

Students in our inaugural year have a tremendous opportunity to set the tone, culture, and activities of student life at John Paul the Great…they are building the foundation for future classes!

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 will not be 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 affect on the community at-large.
