The first day of school was AMAZING! It is wonderful to be back on campus. The new school year has an energy all its own. We are so blessed to be growing. Our enrollment is now 215 students! We want to welcome our new students and families to our St. Joseph family.
We ask God to bless our students, families and faculty as we embark on this new school year.

Summer School Information
June 19, 2023 – July 13, 2023
St. Joseph’s Summer School is a fun learning opportunity for children that provides a safe and familiar environment during the summer. St. Joseph School is offering a 4-week Summer School program open to all students entering grades Transitional Kindergarten-TK (age 4) through 8th Grade (age 13).

Academic sessions will be held in the morning and will be individualized for each student so that he/she can be better prepared for the upcoming school year. After lunch time, students will be able to partake in arts, crafts and formation lessons. We will have an exciting and fun water play day to wrap up the summer.

Please stay home if you are showing any signs or symptoms indicative of COVID-19 or have been in close contact with anyone (including a family member) who is experiencing COVID-like symptoms or has tested positive for COVID-19.
As we begin the new year, our objective must be to protect the health and safety of our school community members while maintaining stable, uninterrupted in-person instruction for all students. To prevent outbreaks which will lead to quarantines and periods of distance learning, following the guidance will mitigate on-campus transmission and prevent a return to distance learning. At a time when cases are increasing in our communities, we cannot afford to let our guard down. Moreover, we have a duty of care for one another, for the common good and to protect life. Let’s have a strong start to the new year by keeping our students and staff safe, in-person and united in faith.
