St. Joseph Academy

🎶☀️ Mrs. Johnson's third-grade class enjoyed a special mini Faith Music Concert with Mr. Hanson, our former Principal and current Finance Director. Students were delighted to spend time singing beautiful faith-filled songs while enjoying the wonderful weather.

Thank you, Mr. Hanson, for sharing your love of music and faith with our students. It was a joyful afternoon filled with song, smiles, and fellowship! 💙🎵

🏃‍♀️💜 Our St. Joseph Academy girls proudly participated in the annual Girls on the Run 5K! This special tradition is all about empowering young women, building confidence, and celebrating their strength, determination, and accomplishments.

A heartfelt thank you to Mrs. Buenning for coordinating this beautiful event and for all of the preparation that made it possible. We also extend our gratitude to the coaches and families who encouraged and supported their girls every step of the way.

We are so proud of each participant for crossing the finish line with confidence and courage. Way to go, girls! 🎉🏅

🦋 An SJA Butterfly Story 🦋

Once upon a time in the fall of 2025, there were 3 caterpillars in the school garden. They loved our Dill plants! 🌿

Mrs. Buenning carefully brought them inside and placed them in a butterfly habitat where the kindergarten class watched them munch on plants and form their chrysalis. All winter long, the chrysalis rested quietly in the classroom closet.

Then one day… a beautiful butterfly emerged and fluttered around the kindergarten room! 🖤💛 The students excitedly watched as it found an apple to snack on before being released outside onto the playground to enjoy its new home.

Soon after, a second butterfly hatched and was released during our SJA Green Guardians Family Event, surrounded by children and families of all ages. Finally, the last butterfly emerged, spending a little time as a special visitor in the K5 classroom before the students lovingly released it as well.

What a beautiful reminder of our SJA Core Value of Transformation and Learning with patience, care, and time, wonderful things can grow and transform right before our eyes. ✨

✨ Throwback Thursday ✨

Looking back at these beautiful moments when our students completed their First Communion and Baptism. At St. Joseph Academy, it’s about more than academics we are also honored to help guide our students in preparing for their religious sacraments and growing in their faith journey. 💙🙏

These special milestones will forever remain cherished memories for our SJA families.

Our 8th graders are making the most of their final days at SJA with lots of fun, laughter, and excitement! ❤️🎓

From enjoying the beautiful views at Holy Hill to creating unforgettable memories with friends, these last field trips have been filled with joy and togetherness. We are so proud of this amazing group and can’t wait to celebrate all they have accomplished! ✨
