I am parent of three sons, one who graduated from this school last June, one in the 6th grade and another who is not yet in school. We feel blessed and fortunate to have this 'gem' of in our community. A child can learn in a safe environment where academics and morals are just a as important. The school may not be 'new' like most middle schools, but the small class sizes and the fact that you are welcomed into a 'family' is something that you will not duplicate in a bigger school. As a result of the education here I firmly believe that my children will have the skills to succed in life.

The second of our two daughters graduated from St. Joseph Reg Academy this past Spring, my wife and I will miss this great, safe and spiritual school. Both are well disciplined with very good study habits and treat others the way they would want to be treated....Good Job SJRA!

I am a parent, grandparent and was a student of St. Joseph's regional Academy. My granddaughter is '4th' generation attending this school. It offers the best in academic, spiritual and social guidance for your child.

Our son has attended St. Joseph Regional Academy for the past 7 years. We are continually impressed by how he responds to his classmates and teachers. Even as a non Catholic family, our son benefits greatly from the values that are taught and practiced at this school. Each teacher has been outstanding! The small class size allows our son to receive an education that encourages him to do his best and get individualized help when needed. We appreciate how this school has helped us raise a child that sees his education as a rewarding experience. When he wakes up for breakfast some mornings and asks us to help him prepare for a test, we are constantly reminded that this school has helped him become a child who wants to learn...

If you truly mean a shy kid who wants to be outgoing, then I would help them interact with one child at a time. If you are talking about an introverted child, refer to http://www.carlkingdom.com/10-myths-about-introverts

Find something you are good at or enjoy doing a lot, just one thing. You'll gain confidence and meet other kids that enjoy that activity too. Mine was singing in choir. I wasn't good at anything else but that built my confidence for other things... More »
