  • Our Mission

    Saint Joseph Catholic School is a parish ministry that teaches
    the faith, traditions and culture of the Catholic Church as the
    cornerstone of a solid academic foundation and virtuous character formation.


     


     

    Philosophy:

    Saint Joseph Catholic School accomplishes its mission by assisting parents in their
    responsibility to guide their children towards eternal happiness with God
    in heaven. A rich sacramental life is available for students, and parents are always
    welcome to participate with their children. Our focus is to grow the ability of our
    students to think, reason, and communicate well in pursuit of the true, the good,
    and the beautiful. Our school atmosphere is safe and nurturing, with an
    emphasis on the importance of being respectful to others, providing service
    to others, and developing self-discipline. Students are actively engaged through
    the use of a variety of instructional methods and emerging technologies that promotes
    collaboration and higher-level thinking skills. We believe each child is a
    unique gift, who requires loving guidance, encouragement, and individual
    attention in all the areas of life. We look to our parents to participate in
    the life of the school to ensure it is a continuation of family life.
