St. Joseph School began over 30 years ago with the philosophy that all students should be instructed in a Christ-like atmosphere of love and acceptance.
Throughout the years St. Joseph School has strived to provide each child with the best Catholic education while instilling in them a sense of commitment to others and to the society in which they belong.
The St. Joseph faculty and staff incorporate Catholic beliefs, development of prayer life, a sense of community, and a concern for justice with all students.
Global issues and the Church doctrine are taught hand in hand as the students progress in their understanding of the inter relatedness of God and the world.
St. Joseph School offers classes from Kindergarten through the Eighth grade.
Education is enhanced using closed circuit and cable television, access to computers and the Internet, and field trips to educational establishments.
Participation in liturgies reinforces the concepts embraced in our Christian faith.
