One of the many blessings that we receive as staff members of St. Joseph School is the opportunity to view The Advent Season from the perspective of our students. The excitement and anticipation that is evident as children talk about their own family traditions helps us keep the focus on what this season really means as the times get hectic with more secular activities.

As a school, we have so many activities and events to mark this season of anticipation. Weekly prayer services focusing on the meaning of Advent, our school Mass, The Christmas Concert, Reconciliation and Adoration are all part of our school day. Our consistent objective is to provide our students with some of the components of Our Faith that can be celebrated throughout their lives.

Please know that families are always invited to attend these activities to share in the joy that our students have as we begin the new liturgical year.
