Here Come The Holidays
What an amazing beginning to our 2021-2022 school year. Daily I am in awe of our students and staff's ability to adapt and modify through all the changes that take place. Our students are a wonderful example of the love the Lord shines on St. Joseph School. While changes will continue to take place as needed I want to thank each and every parent for your honesty and feedback that you have provided this school year. With Christmas fast approaching, I want to wish you all a happy, healthy, and blessed holiday season. With Advent comes the ability to pause and reflect on how the Lord plays a daily role in our lives. I hope you find time this holiday season to gather with family, pray, and embrace the Lord. Our blessings at St. Joseph School are never ending and that is in thanks to all of our school family support.
