Saint Joseph Catholic School

A huge thank you to Blendin Protein + Energy for providing free customized drinks for our teachers and staff! 💚 Everyone had the opportunity to choose a drink they wanted to try, and the teas were delivered fresh to our school today. Each 32 oz Mega Tea is made with tea, collagen, and stevia and contains 160 mg of caffeine.

Thank you for this thoughtful and refreshing surprise for our school team! ✨

We are so excited to welcome our returning families back and to greet the many new families joining the Saint Joseph Catholic School community. We are grateful to begin another year of learning, growing in faith, and learning to lead and serve as saints!

📸 Records & Pictures Day is TODAY from 2 pm to 6 pm!

Today, all students are invited to come take their school pictures, meet their teachers, and complete any remaining paperwork for the new school year.

This year’s Records Day will take place in the school cafeteria.

➡️ Enter through Gate B, located by the school office.
➡️ Use Door 2 to enter the building.
➡️ First, head downstairs to the cafeteria to complete paperwork, receive this year’s important information, and take school pictures.
➡️ Afterward, families may visit the classrooms and meet their teachers

We can’t wait to welcome everyone and begin another wonderful school year together! 💚

School supplies are included in tuition, so families do not need to purchase a traditional supply list.

Donations are always welcome on Records & Pictures Day (August 4) and throughout the school year. We are especially requesting:

- Tissue boxes
- Lysol or disinfecting wipes
- Crayola markers for our new K–5 Fine Arts classes

Thank you for helping us keep our classrooms clean, healthy, creative, and well-supplied!

We are currently seeking volunteer coaches and helpers for:
🏐 Volleyball
🏃 Cross-Country
🏀 Basketball
⚽ Soccer

You do not have to be a professional coach to make a difference. We are looking for positive role models who can encourage teamwork, build confidence, teach good sportsmanship, and help our student-athletes grow both on and off the field.

Your leadership can make a lasting impact on a child’s life while strengthening our Saint Joseph school community.

This World Cup season reminds us how sports can bring people together, and at Saint Joseph, our soccer program does just that! Students, families, and staff come together to cheer on the fun seasonal sports programs we offer throughout the year. Soccer is one of our strong suits, and we are proud to offer intramurals for Kindergarten–4th grade and soccer teams for 5th–8th grade.

Our Saint Joseph soccer teams have won many awards over the years, but what we love most is seeing our students have fun, build confidence, practice teamwork, and grow in school spirit.

Go, Saint Joseph!

At Saint Joseph, students grow in faith, academics, and community while being supported in a caring Catholic environment. Families choose us for our small class sizes, scholarships, bilingual family support, structured after-school care, and a strong faith-filled foundation.

We also offer opportunities that help students discover their gifts beyond the classroom, including art classes and seasonal sports programs, which help them build creativity, teamwork, confidence, and school spirit.

Scholarships are available, and space is limited in some grades.
