Our Mission Statement and Philosophy Rooted in the Dominican tradition of prayer, study, community and service, Pope John Paul the Great Catholic High School is committed to the formation of youth with special emphasis on the ethical development of the students. We strive to provide an environment where students can grow in the image of Jesus Christ while developing intellectual, theological, and moral virtues. In order to carry out this mission, the faculty and staff are committed to: - Providing an environment in which the profound dignity of every student is affirmed, thus enabling them to grow in the knowledge of their worth as creatures made in God’s image and invited to share divine life with Him. - Providing an environment in which the Catholic faith is vibrant so that students can grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ and are motivated to take an ever more active role in his Church. - Cooperating with the parents and families of our students, recognizing them as the primary educators of their children.
