Program Highlights
Global Education
The Global Education program was created to empower women to become global leaders with strong values necessary in the realities of today’s society. This program offers a more globally-focused curriculum and provides outside learning opportunities that empower global citizenship. Our students are provided with meaningful service opportunities and the chance to foster mentorships with students, alumnae, and professionals.
Robotics
JoeBotics, St. Joseph’s Academy’s robotics program, was established during the 2013-2014 school year. JoeBotics has competed at the FIRST Technical Challenge level for 9 years running. Each year FTC presents a new game for the season, and the team works together to design, build, program, and test a robot to meet the challenges of the game. Due to popularity, the program expanded to include a second team during the 2021-2022 school year.
visual arts
The arts remain an integral part of our students’ learning, encouraging them to think critically and take risks. In 2020, our Visual Arts program expanded and was relocated to a dedicated space on the second floor. Three classrooms were designed specifically for the unique requirements of painting, drawing, ceramics, and more. At St. Joseph’s Academy, it is our desire to not only develop fine artists, but also to enhance an appreciation of the arts in all students.

“I loved my experience in Independent Science Research. It was a challenging yet very rewarding opportunity, being able to explore my own research topic, apply for grants, and travel to present my completed work. The amazing SJA faculty have helped me greatly on my academic journey!”

"One of the core values of St. Joe is to 'foster a desire to serve' and in the description of that core value there is a scripture from the Gospel of Luke which says: 'To whom much is given, much is required'. I went to Kenya for the first time in 2012 and was exposed to the vast number of vulnerable children who had few resources to help them break out of the cycle of poverty. That started my journey of recognizing my immense privilege and figuring out what would be required. In 2017, I started the nonprofit, BEAM Kenya, to equip children to overcome adversity through education and psychosocial support."

"St. Joe has proven to be the place for my daughters to transition from young girls to young ladies that are prepared for the next level of education, life, and spirituality. "Not I, but We" is shown everyday and in every interaction at the school by teachers, staff, and students, which has been an invaluable tool to boost self-esteem and confidence in my daughters to spread their wings and learn to fly!"
