“As Catholic School Educators, we believe the values we teach are not only character development, but a call to Holiness”

Catholic Diocese of Toledo

St. Joseph School's curriculum is based upon the Courses of Study issued by the Superintendent of Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Toledo and approved by the Ohio Department of Education. These courses of study are Religion, language arts, mathematics, science, health, social studies, music, art, and physical education. St. Joseph School also has a foreign language component (Spanish) for students in grades K-8. Technology is integrated throughout the curriculum and students also receive instruction in computer literacy skills.  SmartBoard technology is an integrated part of instruction.

Educational Services

In addition to the core curriculum, special educational services meet the many needs of St. Joseph students with reading and math tutorial programs, learning disability tutoring, speech and language therapy and a guidance curriculum. A full time school nurse attends to the student's health needs.

Religious Education

We exist as a school because of our commitment to religious education. Our primary purpose is to promote the development of a responsible Christian way of life. The Diocesan Course of Study serves as the guideline for the religion curriculum. Students receive 30-45 minutes of religious instruction daily in addition to preparation for and participation in student liturgies.
