ADMISSIONS
Welcome to the PJP Community!
Pope John Paul II is a Catholic college preparatory school located on a pristine 83-acre campus in Royersford, PA. What may separate PJP from other private and public schools is its ability to intentionally engage students in the three A's...Academics, Athletics, and Arts in a faith-based environment.


We look forward to getting to know you and your family better in the coming months. The first place to start if you are considering attending PJP is to submit an application. A link to the PJP application is below. Once your application is complete, you can commit to PJP by submitting your registration. Your point of contact at PJP is Director of Admissions Meghan Nealon-Weinberg meghan.nealonweinberg@pjphs.org
SHADOW DAYS
October, 2024 to April, 2025
Shadow Days are an excellent way for your child to participate in the PJP Experience. Through being assigned to a current PJP student, your child will be able to see what high school at PJP is like.
Please arrive by 7:45 AM in the Main Office. A PJP representative and the PJP student guide will be waiting to greet your child. Shadow Day students will receive a complimentary lunch in the PJP cafeteria.
At the end of the school day, your child is asked to report back to the Main Office to return their chromebook in exchange for a shadow day t-shirt.
​
NOTE: Shadow Days are for prospective students only, The SchoolAdmin application form must be completed prior to signing up your child for a Shadow Day.

For public, non AOP private, charter, independent, virtual, home, or other school 8th graders, they can take the scholarship test at Pope John Paul II High School on Saturday, October 4th. To register for that test contact Meghan Nealon-Weinberg at meghan.nealonweinberg@pjphs.org . Merit Scholarships range from $1,000 to $5,000.
