Thank you for your interest in Saint Joseph School. At SJS we are proud to provide our preschool through eighth grade students with a faith based, academically challenging education. When our students graduate from SJS in eighth grade they are prepared for the next step in their academic journey.

The school requires that an entrant for kindergarten be five years old by September 1. No testing is mandated for kindergarten entrance, but screening is done prior to the start of school to evaluate physical development, ability to listen and follow directions, along with fine and gross motor skills.
Children of Saint Joseph, Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton, and Saint Katharine Drexel parishioners are given preference before non-parishioners in the order of acceptance. Parishioners are considered to be those who have registered with the parish and are active members.
Saint Joseph School admits students of any race, sex, color, national origin, age (according to age requirements) or disability and are accorded the rights and privileges of all students.
