When I came for a visit at St. Joes, I watched how students treated one another and their teachers. The faculty were kind, approachable and welcoming while the students were respectful, dedicated and open. I knew this was a community I wanted to be a part of.” Bella jakab '24

There's a reason we say St. Joes Cadets are on a Mission for More.
It’s because here, students are always striving forward. They’re eager to discover new talents and expand their existing passions. They’re determined to reach the high academic goals they’ve set for themselves. And they’re ready to serve something greater — their community, their faith, and the larger world.
Freshman Course Placement
Freshman course placement at St. Joseph High School is based on holistic application review (transcripts, exam score, recommendations, etc.). Dynamic placement is implemented for each student. This means students are placed in college preparatory and honors courses according to their individual qualifications.
St. Joseph High School does not adhere to course "tracks" (i.e. Honors Program, College Prep Program). All students are placed according to their aptitude during their time at St. Joes. This course placement process allows students to differentiate their courses according to their future goals while ensuring each student has an equal opportunity for appropriate challenge. Students are also given the opportunity to change course levels each year with appropriate credentials.
Freshman students will receive their course draft at May Orientation.

Freshman Success Program
All incoming freshman actively participate in the Freshman Success Program designed to provide a seamless transition from middle school to St. Joseph High School. More specifically, two School Counselors and a team of dedicated SJ staff members will be charged with guiding and supporting our newest Cadets throughout their transitional year at St. Joes. This is especially important because the freshman class includes students from 36 towns and over 55 middle schools! Learn more about the Freshman Success Program here!
Student Academic Center
Through a variety of workshops, services, academic tutoring, and coaching, the Student Academic Center offers students the opportunity to understand themselves and the way they learn. They will make the most of their strengths and learning preferences.
All individual sessions, daily group sessions, and workshops reflect the diverse needs of all our students so that they may enter college and life equipped with the skill sets that drive academic promise, creative problem solving, self-advocacy, and confidence. Learn more about the Student Academic Center here!

I fell in love with the SJ community. The teachers, staff, and students create an environment where everyone can thrive socially, intellectually, and spiritually. Everyone wants you to succeed, which makes going to school so much more exciting."Danielle haniph' 23
I chose St. Joes because when I shadowed here, I felt like I belonged before I even started. I was also intrigued by the many different sports and classes offered. At SJ, I am able to participate in so many different activities; I am on the soccer, winter track, and baseball teams. I also am part of Student Ambassadors and the Tri-M Honor Society.” Jason Lambert '24

St. Joes isn't like all of the other local schools I visited in 8th grade. On campus you can feel the school spirit traveling through the hallways. The students are happy to be at school. I knew it was the place for me.” Justin Ruby '24
