Open House brings a large number of potential families into our building each year. Often times, our preschool program has a wait list shortly after. If you will have a preschooler returning to JPII or you are interested in enrolling a student in the program, please contact Donna Hogue(913-432-6419) as soon as possible. Current JPII families are placed first on the list but will need to be confirmed before Open House, when open enrollment begins.
