JOHN PAUL II HIGH SCHOOL ATHENAEUM

The Athenaeum

    In Classical Athens, the Athenaeum was a gathering area where scholars, poets, and playwrights came to create and to read aloud their works, and where teachers came to instruct eager students.

  Later, the Roman Emperor Hadrian founded a school by the same name in Rome.  Today, the word has come to mean a literary or scientific association and building housing a library, periodicals, newspapers, and areas for quiet individual and public group study. 

The John Paul II Athenaeum is a state-of-the-art, wireless multimedia center combining a  library with computer and technology facilities.  This center anchors student academic research and provides a public access center for our larger community to use.
 
Athenaeum Hours:  8:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
