Mission Statement
Blessed John Paul II High School provides an accessible quality Catholic education serving families in the
Diocese of Corpus Christi.
Philosophy
Blessed John Paul II High School is committed to the development and formation of all aspects of the
student’s life. Based on the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, Blessed
John Paul II High School exists to radiate Jesus Christ in all things by encouraging those who learn, worship
and work within this community to serve others and to strive toward the highest ideals of Christian
spiritual, moral and intellectual perfection.
The moral and spiritual life of Blessed John Paul II High School is based on Pope John Paul II’s Apostolic
Exhortation: The Church in America, and strives to:
• enable our students to encounter Jesus Christ through personal and liturgical prayer;
• foster within our students a desire for holiness and a life of continuous conversion to Jesus Christ
despite imperfections;
• provide opportunities for our students to fully share in the Church as a sign of communion to each
other and Jesus Christ; and
• promote opportunities for our students to live out the Gospel of Jesus Christ in solidarity with their
brothers and sisters in the community through acts of charity and works of mercy.
Recognizing their varied backgrounds and abilities, Blessed John Paul II High School provides a college
preparatory education requiring diligence, rigor and consistent effort in order to develop each student’s
personal potential for scholastic achievement. In their course work, students engage in the pursuit of
excellence and learn to become critical thinkers. Students are challenged to become witnesses to the
Christian virtues so as to become true disciples of the Lord Jesus not only in their family life but also in the
community.
In addition to moral, spiritual and academic growth, Blessed John Paul II High School seeks to cultivate
physical, social and emotional growth. These areas are addressed through the school’s academic
curriculum, retreats, student services, extracurricular activities and competitive sports.

“I give you a heart so wise and understanding that there has never been anyone like you up to now, and
after you there will come no one to equal you. In addition, I give you what you have not asked for, such
riches and glory that among kings there is not your like. And if you follow me by keeping my statutes and
commandments, as your father David did, I will give you a long life.”

A Reading from the second Letter of St. Paul to Timothy:
Beloved: Take as your norm the sound words that you heard from me, in the faith and love that are in
Christ Jesus. Guard this rich trust with the help of the Holy Spirit that dwells within us.
My child, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. And what you heard from me through many
witnesses entrust to faithful people who will have the ability to teach others as well. Bear your share of
hardship along with me like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
Lector: The Word of the Lord Response: Thanks be to God
*Gospel Acclamation (Festival Alleluia)
Kayla Brianna Gonzalez
Gospel (Matthew 5:13-19):
A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew:
Jesus said to his disciples: “You are the salt of the earth. But if salt loses its taste, with what can it be
seasoned? It is no longer good for anything but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. You are the
light of the world. A city set on a mountain cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and then put it
under a bushel basket; it is set on a lampstand, where it gives light to all in the house. Just so, your light
must shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your heavenly Father. “Do not
think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have come not to abolish but to fulfill. Amen, I
say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or the smallest part of a letter will pass
from the law, until all things have taken place. Therefore, whoever breaks one of the least of these
commandments and teaches others to do so will be called least in the kingdom of heaven. But whoever
obeys and teaches these commandments will be called greatest in the kingdom of heaven.”
Priest/Deacon: The Gospel of the Lord Response: Praise to You, Lord Jesus Christ
