As we celebrate Mrs. Woodward's retirement, we give thanks for the incredible impact she has had over the past 28 years as a dedicated science teacher in the Diocese. While she taught countless lessons in the classroom, her greatest gift was the way she inspired, challenged, and encouraged each student to reach their full potential. The many graduates who eagerly return to visit her are a testament to the lasting impression she has made on generations of students. Thank you, Mrs. Woodward, for your years of faithful service, unwavering dedication, and the love you poured into every lesson and every life you touched. Congratulations on your retirement—you will always be a cherished part of the St. Joseph family. 💙⭐🧪

A heartfelt thank you to our senior alumni for returning to St. Joseph and walking the halls that helped shape your journey. It was a joy to welcome you back, hear your stories, and celebrate the lasting bond you share with our school community. Your presence inspires our current students and reminds us that once a member of the St. Joseph family, always a member of the St. Joseph family. Welcome home! 💙💛

As we wrap up an incredible year and celebrate our amazing 8th-grade class, we are especially proud to recognize our Valedictorian, Emma, and Salutatorian, Everett!

Their hard work, dedication, leadership, and commitment to excellence have left a lasting mark on our school community. While these honors reflect outstanding academic achievement, they also represent the character, perseverance, and positive example both students have demonstrated throughout their middle school journey.

Congratulations, Emma and Everett! We are excited to see all that you accomplish as you begin this next chapter. Join us in celebrating these exceptional students and the entire Class of 2026! 🎓✨💙

🍦✨ Ten years ago, they were learning their ABCs in Mrs. Gregory’s VPK class. Today, they're preparing to walk across the stage as St. Joseph Catholic School graduates!

Mrs. Gregory welcomed 25 of her former students back to her classroom for a special ice cream party, giving them a chance to reminisce, laugh, and celebrate how far they’ve come. From tiny VPK Stars to tomorrow’s graduates, these students will always have a special place in her heart. 💙⭐

Congratulations, Class of 2026—we can't wait to celebrate you at graduation tomorrow!
