Mission Statement
Faithful to the mission entrusted to us in the service of God, St. Joseph Community School, in cooperation with the family, church, and community, commits to promote the enrichment of every child: mind, body and soul.
Embracing over a century of excellence in education, St. Joseph Community School provides an academic means for each individual student to unlock their full potential. We are committed to creative expression of the mind through exceptional fine arts programming.
In our welcoming, safe, and nurturing environment, students learn respect for self and others and to value all creation. We are devoted to the well-being of every student through social/emotional learning, wellness lessons and after school activities. We also promote learning how God blesses the work of our hands through our school garden.
Drawing from the wisdom of our Catholic faith, we recognize that all people were created by God for a higher purpose, greater than ourselves. We work with our students to discover their purpose and gifts through faith, prayer, and service to others, in praise to our Creator.

Testimonials
"When my husband and I decided to enroll our boys at St. Joseph Community School, we did it for a faith based education, but they really got so much more! They have a friendly staff, great education and a family away from family."
- Don and Melisa Boeck
"St. Joseph school has been a fantastic experience for our family. Our kids have excelled not only academically but socially as well. The school is a close knit second family for us and we are proud to be called Panthers!"
- Nick and Kara Speltz
"All three of our boys have attended St. Joseph Community School. We feel that they are getting a top notch education and will be well prepared for high school. St. Joe's is much more than getting a good education though. They are taught how to be children of good character and more importantly...how to be followers of Jesus."
