Hello!  We are looking to add to our team!  
 
Hunter and Brian will both be leaving JPII at the end of the school year.  We are looking for a full-time replacement for them.  Only one position will be offered. 
 
Mrs. Cheyenne will be leaving us at the end of the school year as well.  
 
We are working to develop a Marketing Team!  The team will consist of 2 people who will work to increase enrollment and parent engagement.

Lent
Please help us in our efforts to adhere to the Church's guidelines for Lent.  Students should have alternatives to meat for lunch on Fridays during Lent.  We will be hosting Stations each Friday at 1:30 pm at St. Ann.  All are welcome to join!  
 
Mark your Calendars for Mary's Way of the Cross on Good Friday, April 3rd.  
 
2026-2027 Registration
We are in the process of getting Registration and Re-Enrollment Launched for the upcoming school year!  Now is the time to reach out to family and friends to spread the word about our school!!  Registration will open March 3rd for Current Families and March 16th for new families.

Adoration on FRIDAY MORNINGS for Grades 4-8
 
Rather than being dropped off in the cafeteria, students wanting to participate in adoration before school can be dropped off at the church beginning at 6:55 until 7:25, when we will head to class! 
Get your "FaceTime" with Jesus on Fridays!
