St. John Paul II High School operates as an independent, non-profit organization cooperating with the Archdiocese of Denver. The school opens with the blessing of Archbishop Samuel J. Aquila and is officially recognized as an independent Catholic school. The Archdiocese offers its support in helping to establish and promote the new school, oversees its Catholic mission and theology curriculum, and has representation on the school’s governing board.
It is extremely helpful for students to see what it would be like attending JPIIHS if they shadow a student for a day!
Please fill out the Inquiry Form on FACTS (linked) to give us potential dates for your student and we will be in touch with you to schedule!
