🍂 Happy First Day of Fall! 🍁

As we welcome a new season, we give thanks to God for the beauty of Autumn and for the many blessings that come with new beginnings. May this season remind us that, just as the leaves change, God is always at work in our lives—helping us grow in faith, kindness, gratitude, and love. 🤎

We pray for our students, families, teachers, and entire Academy of Saint Joseph community as we begin this beautiful season together.

“For everything there is a season.” — Ecclesiastes 3:1 ✝️🍂

What a special moment for our school family! 💙✨

Ms. Reyes, a proud alumna of Academy of St. Joseph, brought in her very own school uniform from when she was a student here to share with our children. It was so meaningful to see a piece of ASJ history come back through our doors and to remind our students that the memories and traditions made here can stay with you for a lifetime.

There is something so beautiful about coming full circle—from once walking these halls as a student to now leading our school community as principal. ⭐️

Once an ASJ Star, always an ASJ Star! 💙🙏

☕✨ Pouring Positivity into a New School Year! ✨☕

Our 7th graders kicked off their first day of school with a meaningful and fun activity! They filled their “coffee cups” with positive affirmations, hopes, and goals that they are eager to achieve throughout the year. 💕📚

What a wonderful way to begin the year—with confidence, encouragement, and a positive mindset! We can’t wait to watch our students grow, learn, and accomplish all that they set their hearts and minds to.

Here’s to a school year filled with positivity, perseverance, and plenty of reasons to celebrate! 🌟

🍋 4th Grade Lemonade War Project! 🍋

Our 4th Grade students brought The Lemonade War to life with a creative, hands-on project that connected literature with real-world learning!

After reading the novel, students became young entrepreneurs by creating their own lemonade businesses. They developed a business name and logo, designed a menu, set prices, calculated expenses, and created a marketing strategy. 🍋💰

Through this project, our 4th graders practiced creativity, problem-solving, communication, presentation skills, and financial literacy while making meaningful connections between reading and real-world business concepts.

We are so proud of the hard work, imagination, and effort they put into their projects. Their lemonade businesses turned out amazing! 💛🍋✨

Way to go, 4th Grade!

Yes — for the school page, I’d make it a little more communal, Catholic, and school-centered:

Today, our school community pauses to remember and pray. 🇺🇸🙏

On this 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001, we honor the 2,977 lives lost, the families forever changed, and the first responders and everyday heroes who showed incredible courage and selflessness.

As a Catholic school family, we lift in prayer all those affected by that day and ask God to continue to bring comfort, healing, peace, and hope.

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace. Amen. 🕊️

We remember. We pray. We will never forget. 🇺🇸
