School Notes

  • "I cannot recommend this school enough. St. Joseph has been a second family for us. The moment we stepped foot into the classroom, we knew that our children were in good hands. The teachers are kind, patient, and truly dedicated to the success of each and every student, and the parent community is what uniquely makes this school feel like family. The classrooms are warm and welcoming, with plenty of learning opportunities that are both engaging and age-appropriate. Our children are always excited to go to school and come home every day eager to share what they've learned." - Parent of St. Joseph students in preschool through upper grades
  • "In today`s world, I am glad that we made the choice to send our children to St. Joe`s. I am proud of who each of them has become. It was the best decision we ever made for our children and I would sacrifice and do it all over again." - Parent of three St. Joseph graduates

A great school to educate, grow faith, and form friendships. I'm the mom of 5 graduates and each of them were well prepared for High School and some has now graduated from college. Many have maintained friendships from their years at St Joseph, and all have and continue to grow their Catholic faith! Each participated in sports while at St Joseph middle school and had the opportunity to not only learn a sport but play in a positive and safe environment. Very grateful for St Joseph School!

St. Joseph School in Big Bend is a small close knit community of students in grades 4K-8th grade. It is a faith-centered school that puts character and manners at the center of their day. The teachers and staff are excellent and take the time to get to know each student's individual needs. The academics, technology, and athletic programs match and exceed those at the public school. Small class sizes allow for individual attention and integration across all grade levels. I would recommend this school to anyone!
