Saint Joseph School is happy to announce that we will continue to offer New Student Referral Program. Through our New Student Referral Program, your family can receive a $500 tuition credit for every student new to Catholic education you refer to SJS who enrolls and remains at SJS for the full school year!

Please help share your experience at SJS with other families!

Saint Joseph School families will be provided a two-week priority enrollment period in January 4 - 27 to re-enroll for the coming school year. Current families will have the opportunity to enroll current students and siblings (new students) during this time.

How do I enroll?

The 2023-24 enrollment process will again be completed by doing the following:

1. Re-enroll using the St. Joseph School Headmaster Parent Portal by January 27, 2023
2. Complete the 2023-2024 Re-enrollment Financial Preference Form
3. Submit the $200 per family registration fee which is invoiced on St. Joseph School Headmaster Parent Portal for the convenience of paying with a credit card (unfortunately we are unable to accept American Express). You may also send in a check or cash payment with the financial preference form

Thank you for entrusting your child’s education with us and for choosing Saint Joseph School. We feel that all our students are gifts from God and look forward to a continued partnership with you in assisting them to grow into responsible, successful adults.

National Catholic Schools Week (CSW) is an annual celebration of Catholic education in the United States. Now entering its 49th anniversary year, CSW has traditionally been held the last week in January. Schools typically observe the week with Masses, assemblies, and other activities for students, families, parishioners, and community members to celebrate.

This year’s theme is Catholic Schools: Faith. Excellence. Service.

Father Stephen invites all families, faculty, and staff to join together on Sunday, January 29 at 10:00 for family Mass.

Parents, guardians, and other family members play a vital role in Catholic education. Not only do they volunteer at the school, but they also instill values and expectations for academic excellence in their children at home. We acknowledge the role of families in Catholic education and celebrate their contributions to the success of our schools on the last day of National Catholic Schools Week, and all year long.

Let’s make it a great Catholic Schools Week!

Our annual Scholastic Book Fair will once again be held during Catholic

Schools Week. This is a great opportunity for our students to build their home

libraries and further their love of reading. As always, all purchases benefit our

school.

We are excited to host this year’s fair during our Open House/Science Night on

Tuesday, January 31 st . Why not stop by to view the fair with your children. It

will have hundreds of titles that are not on the take home flyer.

Students will be allowed to preview books during library classes. To purchase

books during the school day, please send your child in with their wish list and

payment (cash or check) in an envelope or plastic bag. Please add 6.25% for

Massachusetts taxes.

Children can purchase books at the school fair, or you can shop online. Although

the school “profit” will be slightly different at the Scholastic Store online, you can

make a purchase by clicking on the link on our Book Fair Homepage.

Our Book Fair also offers eWallet, a safe and secure alternative to cash. Simply

create a free account to add funds and/or invite family and friends to contribute so

your child can select their own books. Children will be guided through spending

the funds in their accounts. Change for unused funds cannot be given at the fair.

We have exciting news to share with our school community! After careful consideration, we have selected a Saint as our school mascot! Moving forward we are looking for artwork to represent our mascot choice. This search is open to all. Please submit ideas and art work to Mrs. Piazza by Friday, February 17. Please help us spread the word!

All Spirit Wear will now be available to purchase online and will be shipped directly to YOU! This will NOT change the SJS uniform policy on Gym Days. We asked that all students follow the dress code that is in the Handbook. (Navy blue and grey are accepted gym attire)

What is the St Joseph Glow Run?

The St Joseph Glow Run is a 10-day program and is this semester’s biggest fundraiser, taking place on 02/17/2023. Families will be getting donations for the laps their student completes at the St Joseph Glow Run. Funds raised from this event go toward a new playground structure! Our goal is to raise $20,000!
