  • An active, parental participation in their child's education process.

We Offer:

  • Small classes with a teacher-student ratio of 7:1.
  • Personal attention, individualized learning.
  • Technology integration for both teachers and students.
  • Caring teachers and challenging lesson plans which adds up to outstanding education outcomes.

Our Mission

We, the Principal, Teachers and Staff of St. Joseph Academy, with the help of God’s Grace, strive to model for our children and their families a true Christian life, to help them grow spiritually, academically and socially, so they may face life’s challenges with courage, and gain the happiness of Heaven. 

Our Philosophy of Education

A Catholic school has one primary reason for existence: to instruct students in the truths of our faith, so that, accepting these truths, they may so live, that God “through Jesus Christ may carry out in them all that which is pleasing to Him.” (Heb. 13:21) Hence, basic to our philosophy as Catholic educators at St. Joseph Academy is instruction in the principles of Christian faith and morals – principles which may serve our students as guidelines in worthy earthly living in attainment of eternal beatitude.

Secondly, Catholic education aims to give students an excellent academic education. St. Joseph Academy accepts this second purpose and endeavors to provide its students with a thorough instruction in the basics of scholarly learning.

Thirdly, since children are social beings living in a social milieu, St. Joseph Academy strives to inculcate in its students principles of regard and courtesy: a respect for their own human dignity and for that of all other people.

Finally, St. Joseph Academy accepts the trust of instilling in its students a sense of true patriotism with its responsibilities of good citizenship.

Catholic Identity

We are a Catholic Religious school, run by the Sisters of St. Joseph the Worker.  We serve students from the communities of Boone, Kenton, Gallatin, Grant, Pendleton and Owen counties, welcoming students of all faiths who participate in the established religious curriculum and programs offered during the school day.

Our Catholic identity is the solid foundation of all we do. Our faith and religious practices permeate the school day. As Christians, we are reminded by St. Paul in Romans 12:2, “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind.” The mind needs to be filled with the words of Jesus found in the daily reading of Sacred Scripture at Mass. Then our thoughts can rise to God throughout the day in praise, thanks, adoration, contrition, and supplication. 

Parents, as the first educators of their children, teach them moral values that will benefit them throughout their lives. At St. Joseph Academy, we nourish these moral values in a Christian environment that encourages the students to openly profess their faith in God.
