Why a Catholic Education Matters
Catholic Education is crucial to the development and catechesis of our young people today.  It provides an environment which emphasizes high academic standards with a strong emphasis on developing the whole child.  Catholic Education recognizes the importance of supporting the academic, social and spiritual needs of all of our students.

I choose to work at St. Joseph School because I enjoy the close family atmosphere, the strong parental support and the opportunity to share my faith in the context of my daily work as a teacher.

January has been a very busy and exciting month for our Third Graders.  We were so excited and blessed to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation on January 27, 2012.  Everyone was excited because they realize how special it is to come before Jesus and receive his grace and forgiveness through the tremendous gift of confession. 

Looking ahead we will be celebrating Catholic Schools Week and everyone is looking forward to all the fun activities.  We have been practicing our music for the county-wide school Mass that is part of the celebration.  It is always a blessing when Notre Dame, Holy Family and St. Joseph students come together and worship God as one.

We have lots of interesting work ahead of us as we begin a new marking period this coming week.  I have seen tremendous growth and maturity in my wonderful class.  Thank you all for your continued help and support!
