Current Openings
“True education has always rested on two presuppositions. The first is that truth is desirable for its own sake. It is good not for what it does, but for what it is. The second is that knowledge consists not in bending the truth to ourselves, but in conforming ourselves to truth. We can only conform ourselves to truth by freely embracing and loving it, and we can only love truth if we are enticed by its beauty. Love of beauty has therefore always been integral to the discovery of truth and true education has always sought to form the heart and mind, reason and will, desire and knowledge. In short, education forms the whole person in light of truth, beauty, and goodness.”
St. John Paul II Independent School is seeking qualified teachers for the 2023-24 school year. The ideal candidate is able to model and foster a deep love of Jesus Christ and His church.

We use the St. Jerome Classical Education Program which emphasizes the joys and rigors of being a thinking, acting Catholic in today’s world. Our curriculum highlights that truth and beauty are good in themselves and desirable for their own sake. We seek to incorporate our students into the wisdom of two thousand years of Catholic thought, history, culture, and arts so that they might understand themselves and their world in the light of the truth and acquire the character to live happy and integrated lives in the service of God and others.
