Our mission
We believe that
​
-
Learning will take place in a Catholic Faith based community of sudents, teachers, staff, and administrators with the support of parents and stakeholders.
​​
-
Prayer, worship and a religious atmosphere are of primary importance in a Catholic Faith based community and all members of that community and should strive for greater love and respect for God, others, and themselves.
​​
-
Education is both content and process. Students must be able to show their knowledge, be aware of how to develop it, and make use of it both now and in the future.
​​
-
Students need to take some responsibility for their own learning and formation. That is to say, they need to be aware of great effort needed on their part to master their academics and grow in virtue.
​​
-
Students should leave St. Joseph's High School with a thorough knowledge of the Catholic Faith and a deeper sense of what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ.

COMMENT FROM A PARENT:

From my observation, the school follows its mission to provide quality education, place strong emphasis on Christian living and prepare their students to take their place in society.
