"St. Joseph School called to us. When I was at a crossroad professionally and unsure which direction to take; I was invited to interview at St. Joseph. The sense of community and love was evident right away and made me feel like I had found the staff relationships I sought. As a parent with a student who has special needs I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of support provided to my student. We could not imagine going anywhere else. It is worth the drive from Flat Rock every morning to work and learn in such an inspiring environment"-Jennifer Long, 2nd grade teacher and parent
