What better way to learn all about St. Joseph’s Academy than to spend the day on our campus?
Eighth-grade girls are invited to learn about our curriculum; talk to teachers and students; see classrooms in action; get information about our athletic program, student clubs and organizations; and get answers to all your questions.

Following the recommendations of healthcare professionals, we are currently limiting visitors to campus. Unfortunately, we are not able to host many of our events for prospective students this fall. This includes our on-campus Welcome Home Nights, Coffee on Kleinert and Spend the Day events.
