I am very grateful for this school. The teachers, staff, and student body are all incredibly welcoming and kind. After a few weeks attending St. Joe, it will start to feel like home. The students become like your brothers and sisters and the teachers are also awesome.

My experiece with Saint Joseph Catholic school have been some of the best years of my life. I started in the seventh grade at Saint Joseph and am currently a senior. I have grown very much as a person in my faith and in my studies. I have made lots of memories and friends along the way. Saint Joseph is a school based around faith. The faculty and staff are their to not only help us in our studies but to also enrich our journey with Christ. As a person who plays sports the coaches want to help us grow into independent men and women and the leaders of tomorrow.

This is a wonderful school. I see the silly, and mostly adolescent, postings about unfair teachers and snobby students but these comments could not be further from the truth. My grandchildren were in the 8th and 10th grades when they transferred to St. Joe and it has been both a heartwarming and int...
