We are confident that SJHS students are inspired to learn, and SJHS graduates are prepared to be the global leaders of tomorrow.

Whether performing complex mathematical equations, learning about women’s history or performing in a dance or dramatic production, SJHS students discover their strength, find their voice and leave an indelible mark on their world. Welcome to St. Joseph High School.

Blessings,
