We have had a wonderful experience at St. Joseph Academy. We love the authentically Catholic atmosphere, the classical approach to education, the friendly and loving staff and administration and the wonderful families. While no school is perfect, SJA continues to work on its areas of weakness (fundraising, high teacher turn- over, and low high school enrollment). The strengths far out weigh its weaknesses and we are so blessed to be a part of the Crusader family. Close Quote

We have 4 children currently attending St. Joseph Academy 2 in grade school and 2 in middle school. We have been at the school since our oldest was in first grade. Our children have grown academically, spiritually and emotionally. The administration is excellent they faithfully follow the teachings of the Catholic Church and we truly believe they have the academic and spiritual growth of our children as their primary goal. Our children are very happy at the school and we feel truly blessed to be a part of such a wonderful family! Close Quote
