Scholars

Who are Our Scholars?

Our scholars come from all kinds of families and backgrounds. At JPII, children can succeed no matter where they’re from, their faith background, or their family’s resources. It’s great to be a Saint!

St. John Paul II School welcomes everyone. Among our nearly 120 scholars:
• 81% are children of color
• 88% qualify for free and reduced lunch
• 79% are English language learners (ELL)

Scholars come not only from Northeast Minneapolis, but from all over the Twin Cities, including Brooklyn Center, Columbia Heights, Robbinsdale, and Fridley.
