We start with an understanding of the human person as a creature, created in the image and likeness of God. From this starting point, the curriculum presents history as a coherent story propelled by the human desire for God and God’s coming to meet, inflame and satisfy that desire in Christ.

The second dimension integrates the curriculum in the student himself, by cultivating in the student aptitudes, habits, and qualities that shape his approach to all subjects, and bind them together into a unity in wonder and love for all that is genuinely true, good, and beautiful.

The core subjects studied at each stage of the curriculum each have peculiar objectives which, taken together, combine for building up the whole. We know what we want our students to come away with at the end of their time at the Saint John Paul the Great Academy.
