John Paul II Catholic School recently opened its doors to dozens of students from our Catholic feeder schools for an informative and fun campus visit. Sixth graders from St. Gregory the Great Catholic School and St. Peter’s Catholic School, along with eighth graders from St. Francis by the Sea Catholic School, spent the morning experiencing life as future Golden Warriors.

The feeder school students and their teachers first met in the athletic center for introductions and a quick Q&A. JPII ambassadors then guided students through a series of interactive tours, showcasing classrooms, science labs, the commons/cafeteria, the athletic center, the Marian Center, and guidance spaces. The visiting students were engaged and curious, asking thoughtful questions about academics, electives, athletics, and campus life. Our guests then worshipped alongside our JPII community during Mass celebrated by Father Perry who enjoyed engaging the students.

The morning concluded with a pizza lunch in the athletic center lobby, where students relaxed, chatted with their friends. By the time they boarded the buses home, excitement for JPII middle school and high school—and for the Golden Warrior community—was unmistakable.

“We are incredibly grateful for our partnerships with St. Gregory the Great, St. Peter’s, and St. Francis,” shared JPII President David Lima. “Welcoming their students to campus each year is a true blessing. We love watching them discover JPII, imagine their future here, and feel at home within our community.”

Admission season for the 2025–26 school year is now underway, and interest continues to grow. As JPII anticipates reaching full capacity, families are encouraged to submit school and financial aid applications by Friday, January 30, 2026, to secure priority consideration.
