Pope John XXIII High School was a private, Roman Catholic high schoolinEverett, MassachusettsInUnited States, in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. The school was established in 1965. It is an independent, coeducational, Catholic college preparatory school serving the metro Boston area. In 2016, Roncalli Prep, recognizing Pope John XXIII's name before taking John as his name ( Grade 8 ) was added to the student body. Roncalli Prep attracts Catholic students from the public school system seeking an advanced curriculum including STEM science, honors algebra, honors Spanish and the humanities.
Due to financial difficulties brought on by default by the United School Association (president Phil Morgaman of Florida), the school closed on May 31, 2019.
