About Us
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.
 
St. John Paul II Catholic High School does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin in admissions or in the administration of its educational policies or other school-administered programs.

Our Vision
Our graduates carry with them a clear understanding of their own identity.  They are immortal beings, of incomparable worth. Their intellects will seek and value objective truth and they make decisions based on truth, not merely on opinion.  They will think logically and speak clearly on the ethical issues of the day.  Their emotions will resonate with love for whatever is good, true, and beautiful; they will reject evil, deceit, and disorder.  
 
Our graduates will exercise self-discipline learned through their studies, sports, and performances.  They will encounter Jesus Christ, knowing as St. John Paul said, that “it is Jesus who stirs in you the desire to do something great with your lives, the will to follow an ideal, the refusal to allow yourselves to be ground down by mediocrity, the courage to commit yourselves humbly and patiently to improving yourselves and society, making the world more human and more fraternal.”  
 
Our graduates will defend the dignity of every human being in the fields of art, politics, science, and medicine.   Above all, they will be ready to follow Christ and to proclaim him to others, thereby being agents of change, building up a culture of life.
