Dear Parents,
St. Joseph Catholic School wants to be part of your child’s school journey! Please prayerfully consider Catholic education.
St. Joseph Catholic School has proven to be highly effective for the past 50 years. Not only do students graduate SJS with an abundance of knowledge in academics, but also because of the faith education, they are empowered in the soul as well! Students leave well rounded in education and character. The SJS staff would love to work together with you in assisting your child to grow as a Kid of Christ.
Please join us for Kindergarten Orientation on Monday, Feb. 24, 2025 at 5:30 PM in McGuire Hall, the lower level of the school. Our Kindergarten teachers will provide information on the curriculum, the school environment, immunizations, and Kindergarten screening. Children do not need to attend. Parents with children presently at SJS do not need to attend but do need to register for an appointment for screening.
Screening will be held April 2nd, 3rd, and 4th at Jefferson Elementary School at 900 N Poplar Ave from 8-4pm. You can go online to https://www.pierre.k12.sd.us/district/kg-screening-registration to schedule a screening appointment closer to the date.
If tuition is a concern, we have ways to help with that. No child will be turned away!
The Presentation Sisters offer tuition assistance scholarships to Catholic students. You can inquire in the office for more information.
SD Partners in Education offers scholarships based on need to any student. Please visit https://sdpartnersinedu.org/families/ to see if your family qualifies.
Feel free to contact me with any questions! You can reach me at 605-224-7185 or through e-mail at Becky.Walsh@k12.sd.us.
I have included an application for registration. Looking forward to walking this new adventure with you!
In His service,
Becky Walsh
