New Saint Joan of Arc Vest


Father Gabriel blessed a new piece of our SJA uniform at Mass today! Each student has been gifted their first Saint Joan of Arc embroidered vest. This vest will be worn at Mass and special occasions throughout the year. They will be kept at school and we will send them home when they need to be laundered.


School uniforms remind us that we’re all part of a bigger community, helping us value teamwork and service both at school and beyond. Plus, wearing a uniform boosts our school pride! It represents our school and shows that we share important values and a sense of belonging.


Thank you, Father Gabriel.

This Week's Spotlight

Tradition with Vision for Preschool through 8th grade

New Specials for Junior High


Our Junior High students are engaging in new learning experiences this year! With a split year with Art/Music, 6th, 7th, and 8th graders have the opportunity to build skills with 3 new classes - one for each grade.


Coding: Our 6th graders are embarking on a journey into HTML, discovering the basics of web design. They’re learning how to structure web pages, follow industry best practices, and unleash their creativity in the digital world.


Coding/Robotics - 7th graders are reviewing Python programming concepts and key terms. They are building confidence and showing persistence as they work through tasks in the Code Academy.


Yearbook - 8th grade students are hard at work capturing the spirit of the 2024-2025 school year at SJA. From choosing a theme and writing captions to taking photos and designing layouts, they’re creating a yearbook that will preserve cherished memories while gaining valuable skills for the future.

For the past few years, SJA has been working on our 5-year school improvement plan entitled Tradition with Vision. The plan is comprised of 5 pillars (Mission and Catholic Identity Foundations in Faith, Academic Excellence, Operational Vitality Facilities and Infrastructure, Marketing, Enrollment and Legacy Building, and Extracurricular Enhancements). Each pillar has goals that were developed jointly by parents and the school.


We are currently seeking parents who are interested in helping us reach the established goals for each pillar. If you are interested or just want to learn more information, please complete the following interest form.
