St. John Paul II Polish Secondary School of Education

When they speak in tongues, one of our own sounds among them, and becomes the roof of the house in which we are together. So close-knit among ourselves one speech we exist among our own roots.”

It is he who unites us and unites us, determines our identity.

Polish parishes, Polish organizations are established and finally Polish schools are organized.

And our school is in this tradition and in this honorable circle.
