Saint Joseph Catholic School Mission Statement

The mission of Saint Joseph Catholic School is to build, as did our patron Saint Joseph, a spiritual foundation upon which our students develop Catholic morals and values while they achieve academic excellence.

Basic Philosophy of Saint Joseph Catholic School

We affirm the purpose of Saint Joseph Catholic School is the Christian, intellectual, social and physical growth of each child. Our aim is the development of the total person with Catholic, Christian attitudes and values, and skills fitting him/her for life in our society and in God’s Kingdom.

We recognize the need for high academic achievement in our rapidly advancing and complex world and are dedicated to providing the environment best fulfilling this need. We expect our children, reflecting their individual abilities, to achieve in academic areas at a rate equal to or greater than surrounding schools.

We recognize that not all societies and/or communities share our Christian values and/or belief. We are dedicated to preparing each child for his/her place in our society. It is our desire to instill in each child a working knowledge of the Catholic faith.

Further recognizing our physical nature, we are dedicated to developing the child’s physical talents and training him/her to use these talents for the general welfare of society.
