Our school scores very strong in School Involvement and Families, and strong in Effective Leadership, Collaborative Teachers, and Ambitious Instruction. Supportive Environment is identified as a neutral area and remains above the district average, helping guide our continued improvement efforts.

At Pope John XXIII School, students benefit from caring relationships with teachers, counselor-led life skills instruction, and clear expectations that support both academic and personal growth. We are intentionally strengthening a consistent, schoolwide approach to social-emotional learning and student support so every child feels safe, supported, and known.
