Saint Joseph School is a Gospel-centered environment, forming young disciples in knowledge and virtue; fostering academic excellence and a lifetime of service to Christ and neighbor.

Our Catholic identity is woven throughout the school day with daily prayer, the celebration of feast days, and our Catholic traditions. All classrooms enjoy a prayer corner and religious pictures and other items that are an important part of faith formation.

Learning Environment

Instruction is a balance between teacher led instruction and student engagement. Student exploration drives what students will be able to do, in regards to the Indiana State Standards and our Religion Curriculum. The learning environment is structured so that everything taught is intentional and has a purpose for student enrichment and remediation, if required.
