Inspiring Minds. Building Character. Living Faith.

Since 1954, Saint Joseph Catholic School has been inspiring minds, building character, and strengthening faith. We commit to the development of the whole child through challenging academics, virtue-building service, and opportunities for daily worship. Saint Joseph students are lifelong learners who are Catholic Christian leaders.
