At Saint Joseph School (SJS), learning is rooted in faith and focused on the whole child. Administered by the Diocese of Harrisburg, SJS serves approximately 470 students in Pre-K through Grade 8 with a challenging curriculum, a dedicated and highly qualified faculty, and state-of-the-art technology and facilities.

We believe excellence and belonging go hand in hand. Students are encouraged to think critically, collaborate, and lead, with an emphasis on character, service, and Gospel values. A wide range of enrichment opportunities (arts, STEM, leadership, service, and more) helps every student discover and develop individual gifts.

Family partnership is central to the SJS experience. Our supportive community includes resources from the Capital Area Intermediate Unit (CAIU) — guidance services, remedial support, and speech therapy — so students can thrive. For busy families, our Extended Day Program provides caring after-school supervision and homework support.

The construction of our modern school facility in 2005 reflects a long-standing commitment by Saint Joseph, Saint Katharine Drexel, and Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton parish communities to provide a quality, faith-based education for children across the West Shore and the Diocese of Harrisburg.

If you seek an affordable Catholic education that nurtures your child intellectually, physically, and spiritually while preparing them for an ever-changing world, we invite you to schedule a visit and discover Saint Joseph School.
