Ex Libris Society

Literature, classic and enduring literature, does its best work in reminding us perpetually of the whole round of truth and balancing other and older ideas against the ideas to which we might for a moment be prone.
— G.K. Chesterton

Members of the Ex Libris Society find joy in providing great literature to nourish and form the minds of our students and faculty. Every book donated will be adorned with a personalized bookplate inside the front cover as a memorial of your gift.  If you prefer to send us a book we’d love, we have Amazon wish lists below each grade level that corresponds to our historical approach. Psst! Don’t forget about those teachers!

BOOKSHELVES & BACKPACKS

Many of us fondly remember school supply shopping, picking out our notebooks, pens and pencils and begging our parents for the year's must-haves.

It is our hope that in gratitude for all that you have received, you will sponsor a backpack stuffed with the materials necessary for 30 students during our first year of operation.

TEACHER FORMATION

The key to a successful school is a great team of well-formed teachers. That is exactly what we aim to offer our faculty and staff.

By teaming up with the Institute for Catholic Liberal Education we want to help our teachers to become experts in Catholic Education.

Please consider contributing to this fund to send our teachers to conferences, retreats and other formation events throughout the year.

KINDERGARTEN

Do you want to help a Kindergartener as they begin their studies at John Paul the Great Academy?

This year they will travel back to the Cradle of Civilization in Mesopotamia and Egypt.

TEACHER’S LOUNGE

It is our hope to form the next generation of Catholic educators after the spirit of Saint John Bosco and Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton.

Please help us make it possible by visiting our Teacher’s Wish List or contribute to the general teacher’s fund.
