Last Week at JPII - 09/22/25

Outdoor Leadership took a field trip to Ditmars Orchard and Farm! Scroll down for more photos. 👇

September 22, 2025 - It’s been busy at St. John Paul II Academy! Here’s a look back at some of the highlights from last week, capturing the heart of life at JPII.

A little gallery from the Ditmars field trip! Students enjoyed meeting the goats and playing on the farm playground. They snacked on apples, apple cider, and apple donuts, and enjoyed a hayrack ride to the orchard. 🍎

5th and 6th hard at work creating beautiful artwork to be displayed and sold at Festival.

Kindergarteners using teamwork (and Miss Mellender) to build the tallest tower!

On the left, the 1st & 2nd grade girls enjoying math class with Mrs. Hula and Mrs. Kelly. On the right, Fr. Boyd makes a visit to the 1st and 2nd grade classroom - hmmm…recruiting votes for the Collar-nary Cookoff?

Hope you enjoyed this week in the life of JPII. Stay tuned for more glimpses in and out of the classroom as we continue to form saints, fully alive!
