Academics
Saint Joseph High School is a Catholic secondary school dedicated to transforming students in heart and mind, preparing them to serve God, the Church, and the world. Saint Joe strives to produce graduates that are intellectually competent, faith-filled, and globally responsible.
Saint Joe implements unique block-scheduling with classes meeting every other day and incorporating a "Flex period" allowing students free time to meet with teachers while promoting time management skills. The Kelly Family Student Commons is located in the center of campus and allows students space to gather and features breakout study rooms for a quiet study space.
For 9th grade students, FLEX periods include the P.A.C.K. Program and the Preparing for College and Careers course. These consist of mini-lessons and assignments to teach skills, habits, and dispositions that will help students adjust and be successful in high school and beyond. The lessons are delivered collaboratively by the FLEX teachers and our peer mentors. These 11th and 12th graders act as mentors for the 9th graders in their FLEX period, as well.
In addition to the academic requirements, Saint Joseph High School requires students to engage in service throughout the school year, contributing to a well-rounded Catholic education.
Accredited by the State of Indiana and Lumen, Saint Joe is a member of the National Catholic Education Association (NCEA) and the Indiana Non-Public Education Association (INPEA), and is accredited by the State of Indiana and Lumen.

Christian Service
Christian service is at the heart of the Saint Joseph High School experience. Rooted in our Catholic faith, students are called to discover their God-given gifts and use them to serve others, especially those who are poor, marginalized, and in need. Through meaningful service opportunities, students put Catholic Social Teaching into action, developing compassionate hearts and a lifelong commitment to serving God, the Church, and the world with joy.
