What do I like about teaching at St. Joseph High School?
From the first day I stepped into St. Joseph High School, my first impression was of a well-knit learning community where everyone counts, our faith in Christ matters, and our love for each other reflects God’s love for us. I want to be a witness to this first impression and contribute to learning.
