Adding Religion and the Arts to the traditional S.T.E.M. program creates a more holistic and interdisciplinary curriculum. Rooted in global awareness, it empowers students to find creative solutions to real-world problems.
The Formation Program at Saint Joseph High School is designed to address non-traditional educational components that are vital to our students' development but are not covered in the normal curriculum.

Mission & Philosophy
Report
The mission of Saint Joseph High School is to form young men, preparing them for life through holistic education in the Catholic traditions of the Brothers of the Sacred Heart. The 200-year tradition of the Brothers of the Sacred Heart is grounded in a holistic approach to education. We believe that young persons learn from their total experience of the school setting.
Religious Values
Report
Christian values are inherent in all disciplines. Through the articulation of these values and through efforts to discover the mystery of God's self-revelation in all branches of learning, the teacher brings a Christian perspective to the classroom. We believe that classroom prayer is a means of making students more conscious of the presence of God in creation, in daily events, in others, and in the learning process.
Partners in Mission
Report
Since 1821, the Brothers of the Sacred Heart have lived our founder, Father Andre Coindre's, vision which was to educate and lead young people. Today, all of the teams employed by the Brothers of the Sacred Heart schools, religious, lay faculty, and support staff are called Partners in Mission, as they work to embody in their educational service to young people the substance of Father Coindre's original charism.
