St. John Paul II Catholic High School

St. John Paul II Catholic High School is a college-preparatory, co-ed high school, rooted in Jesus Christ. Under the patronage of Pope St. John Paul II, and dedicated to Our Lady of Guadalupe, this liberal-arts high school offers a four-year philosophy program.

Led by the Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia of Nashville, students receive excellent academic training while growing in their ability to think clearly about the ethical and cultural issues of our times. Athletic programs, service opportunities, daily prayer and a house system foster growth and a sense of family.

Most importantly, Jesus Christ is the center of the school. He calls and we respond to Him.

The Mission

The mission of St. John Paul II Catholic High School is to provide an educational environment that promotes a personal encounter with Jesus Christ through prayer, study, community, and service as disciples.

 

St. John Paul II Catholic High School provides a college-preparatory curriculum that achieves high standards and is intentionally integrated among departments. Students will acquire knowledge in the required fields of Religion, Ethics & Culture, English, Mathematics, Science, History/Social Studies, World Languages, Fine Arts, Physical Education, and Digital Media.

The mission of the Athletic Department at St. John Paul II Catholic High School is to provide a Christ Centered approach in all of our athletic teams, forming champions for Christ on and off the field of competition. Go Lions!

Fine Arts

God has endowed us with gifts and talents which we use to make us fully human and give Him glory. The arts “provide a record of the finest achievement of human spirit and help us define and measure culture.” Students explore the historical, social, and political expressions of humanity.


The Admissions Office is here to accompany you as you evaluate whether St. John Paul II is a good fit for your child and family. Central to the mission and community is our Catholic Faith, which permeates everything we do at JPII. Under the patronage of St. John Paul II, the leadership of the Dominican Sisters of Saint Cecilia, and the Diocese of Phoenix, the faith is exciting and alive at St. John Paul II.

Faith Life

With the chapel in the center of the top floor, Christ is physically and spiritually the center of the school. Our chaplain offers Mass at the school daily, hears confessions, offers the all-school Masses weekly, and leads prayers at other times. Classes, games, and performances are entrusted to God with prayer. Special retreats, days of recollection, processions and other opportunities for grace and growth as children of God fill out the school year.

Every student becomes a permanent member of one of the six Houses. Houses are closely knit, co-ed communities within the larger school. House members work together at times, celebrating feast days of Our Lady and building community through service. At other times, houses compete against each other in academics, athletics, and school spirit.
