Welcome to St. Joseph's School

Dear Prospective St. Joseph’s Family, 

Welcome to St. Joseph’s Catholic School! Thank you very much for taking the time to get to know our community as you make an important educational decision for your child. We believe that parents who want to provide their children with a Catholic education should have the opportunity.  That is why we provide financial assistance to 45% of our students.

Serving the community for over 70 years, our students are called to be Saints. St. Joseph’s School remains committed to providing students with a Catholic, faith-based, rigorous academic program aligned with state and national standards. All members of our instructional team are engaged in continuous professional development as we strive to deliver high-quality, student-centered, joyful experiences with active learning integrated throughout the day.

Our students participate in a variety of athletic opportunities throughout the school year. We also provide opportunities in a plethora of enrichment activities. We believe that these additional opportunities create well-rounded and happy students.

We take pride in the work that we do in religious education and faith development. Religion, as a class, is a core subject that every student takes at St. Joseph’s. The instruction that we provide establishes a strong foundation of their understanding of our faith.  A unique program, The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, is offered to our K – 5^th grade students and beautifully complements our students’ religious studies. The 8^th graders year culminates in a pilgrimage trip and participating in the Walk for Mary.  

Your partnership in the education of your child is key to his / her success with us. St. Joseph’s is so blessed to have parents who are very supportive of each other and the school. Their presence and support to the school and the parish have been immense and have provided our students with many great programs.

As you tour our campus, we will be happy to answer any questions that you may have. As with many parents who have come and visited the school for the first time, we are confident that you, too, will feel the warm and friendly community as you walk through our hallways. While our enrollment coordinator does an excellent job providing families with information, I will make myself available to speak with you should you have questions for me.

You are welcome to email me as well at givance@stjosephwsp.org.  Wishing you and your family God’s loving blessings today and always!
