St. Joseph Catholic Elementary School is simply the best start for your child! Our top-notch, state-certified teachers ensure that your child gains mastery of the educational basics. We identify and understand each child’s strengths and then build upon them as they learn within safe and faith-filled environments. Small classroom sizes allow for individualized academic and social-emotional support.
We provide a unique Transitional Kindergarten program created specifically for children who need more time to develop their social/emotional or academic growth prior to Kindergarten, community outreach/service learning programs at every grade level, sacrament preparation and weekly Mass, academic support for every level of learning, after-school care, and after-school enrichment programs.

Protecting Young Eyes: Defending Kids from Online Danger
“We have found 'Protecting Young Eyes' to be one of the best programs for parents that clearly spells out the issues and dangers that children are facing today in regard to the use of technology. It gives parents the tools and resources needed to guide their children.”
