Parent Association

To get involved or for more information, please contact the SJPA at [email protected].

We recently rebranded our Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) to create a new and dynamic St. Joseph Parent Association (SJPA). This transformation aims to emphasize our shared commitment to fostering a strong partnership between our school and our valued families in an effort to form the whole student in mind, body and spirit.

By actively engaging in the SJPA, you will have the opportunity to connect with other parents who share your passion for our school. Through various events, fundraisers, and social gatherings, we can foster a sense of belonging and create a supportive network that extends beyond the boundaries of the classroom.

Research consistently demonstrates that parental involvement positively influences a child's academic performance. When parents actively participate in their child's education, students are more likely to excel academically, have better attendance rates and demonstrate improved behavior.

Your involvement in the new St. Joseph Parent Association is crucial to the continued growth and success of our school community. Thank you for your time, commitment and dedication to St. Joseph Catholic School. Together, we will continue to provide an exceptional education and foster a loving and supportive community for our students and their families.
