St. Joe's has been a blessing for my daughter and myself. When we came here four years ago, I almost sent her to ERES because I knew I would not be able to afford tuition. I thank God everyday for such a wonderful principal as Carol Potter who stepped in and told me that if I sent my daughter to St. Joe's, that she would make sure that her tuition would be taken care of for the school year. She is a blessing in disguise for me and so many others that she does not know. My daughter has grown so much over the past four years that I can't see her going to any other school than St. Joe's She gets great grades, has many friends, and enjoys going to school everyday. I can't ask for anything more.

This truly is an amazing school! Our children love the teachers and their classmates. It's obvious that our teachers really care about each child. The atmosphere is just a place that you enjoy being in. A wonderful group of families who share many of the same values, beliefs, and work hard to make this school unbelievably AWESOME . GO... ST. JOE!

St. Joseph School provides an education for the whole child. The staff commitment to academic excellent and faith formation is inspiring. I am also impressed that 43% of the faculty have advanced degrees. I am proud to be an alumnus and parent.

I like sending my children to a school with an atmosphere that encourages making lifelong friends. I think it's important to place a big emphasis on both academic and character education, and I think St. Joe does this.
