School Notes
St. Joseph Central Catholic High School (SJHS) is a private
secondary school, grades 9 12, offering an advanced college
preparatory curriculum. Located in the heart of downtown
Huntington, West Virginia, SJHS is one of five high schools in the
Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston and is supported by the local
Catholic parishes, family tuition, and third-source income.
SJHS is dedicated to serving a diverse student population and, as
such, provides an environment that nurtures the whole person by
integrating faith and life. Consistent with our Catholic
tradition, SJHS seeks to develop leaders who are rooted in Gospel
values and committed to meeting the challenges of building a just
society. Approximately 57% of the students are
Catholic. Students attend from the Tri-State area (West
Virginia, Ohio, and Kentucky) and from around the world.
As a central Catholic high school, SJHS differs from the
traditional parochial school model in that the school is not
affiliated with one parish. Instead, it serves students from
all parishes within our Tri-State area. We have two feeder
middle schools in our Diocese Our Lady of Fatima Parish School and
St. Joseph Catholic School.
