For over 50 years, St. Joseph’s Catholic School has been providing a dynamic, traditional education to our children.
Philosophy:
We, as a compassionate Catholic Community, in a tradition of academic excellence, strive to: Foster a Christian environment of family and friendship. Educate children in the life and teaching of Jesus Christ in the Catholic tradition. Prepare children for leadership in Church and society through a sound and challenging basic academic curriculum. Enable each child to recognize his or her self-worth. Encourage each child to internalize the values of self-discipline, mutual respect, personal morality, social justice and concern for the earth. Nurture each individual’s natural desire to learn.
