Parents want the best for their students. That is why generation after generation, families continue the tradition of sending their students to a school where family matters and students are instructed by teachers who care about them and seek to help each student achieve success. Parents continue to choose Saint Joseph’s as a place they treasured as a student, a place they can now offer to their children, a place which educates the mind, body and soul of each student. Our rich tradition has allowed countless Saint Joe graduates to make a real difference with their lives. We want our future graduates and their families to experience this same success. Our commitment to educate the next generation ensures that our faith remains strong and enduring. This responsibility is one which must be embraced by our staff, our faculty and our parents. At Saint Joseph’s High School, we take this responsibility seriously and believe it is one of the most important duties we have as a Catholic high school. Our graduates practice faith in God, are committed to service, and are inspired to live life as the Body of Christ as we are called to do. As Saint John Chrysostom said, “What greater work is there than training the mind and forming the habits of the young.” Sincerely, Susan Richter, Principal |
