We have partnered with PCI (also known as Publishing Concepts) to produce an Oral History Publication for Pope John Paul II High School. PCI is a family-owned business based in Dallas, TX that has published directories for educational institutions, fraternities, sororities, and military organizations across the nation for over 100 years. This project allows us to hear about your personal experiences from your time at Pope John Paul II High School or any of the legacy high schools and how the school helped to shape your life since then. And, while we have you on the phone, we want to make sure your contact information is up to date.

Yes, in a few different ways:

• Updated Information – allows us to effectively communicate with and engage alumni

• Legacy – sharing and collecting stories preserves the history of our school

• Pride – wearing apparel shows support and love for our school

PCI is committed to protecting your information. The names, addresses and information provided to PCI for the publication of the Oral History Project will be held confidential by PCI, except to the extent that they are utilized in, or in the preparation of, the Oral History Project and except as required by court order or law.

• If you have received a postcard or an email with a telephone number, you may call the number to speak with a dedicated representative for the Oral History Project. The representative will verify the information we have on file for you, make any updates where needed, and then ask you to share your story about your time at Pope John Paul II High School or any of the legacy high schools. Your story will be recorded, and the sound clip provided to Pope John Paul II High School at the conclusion of the project.

• If you have received an email with an embedded link, you may go to the online site to review your information and submit a story.

• If you did not receive a postcard or email, you may call the dedicated Pope John Paul II High School update line at 1-866-485-1561.

• If you are living internationally or are unable to call the update line, please email PCIservice@publishingconcepts.com. PCI will send you a personalized link for you to share your written story and photo.

If you would like to participate and are Deaf/Hard of Hearing, please email customerservice@publishingconcepts.com. PCI will send you a personalized link for you to share your written story and photo.

The only information that is included in the publication is your name, class year and degree, along with your story and photo. No contact information is printed. When you call to update your contact information, it will only be used to update your alumni record for the school/alumni association. You may revoke consent for your story and/or photo to appear any time before 01/09/2026 by contacting PCI’s customer service helpdesk at 1-800-982-1590 / PCIservice@publishingconcepts.com.

You can call back at any time before 01/09/2026 to share your story.

You will receive an email with a link to upload one photo (black and white or color) plus a caption.

If you have also purchased a book but do not have an email address on file, you will be sent a photo mailer to send a physical photo ID to be printed (note: the photo will be returned if you include a self-addressed, stamped envelope).

The Pope John Paul II High School Oral History Publication is available for sale only to Pope John Paul II High School or any of the legacy high schools' alumni.

The total duration of the Oral History Project is about 12 months. Since we began the project in July 2025, the books will be distributed in July 2026.

Contact PCI’s customer service helpdesk at 1-800-982-1590 and they will take care of this for you.
