"You pay your tuition and that's all that the school seems to care about. You pay all this money for peace of mind that your child is safe but they let the other malicious students get away with it. touching your kid. Save your money and send your child to the local HS or Nazareth, Fenwick . ... This school is not worth a penny... They don't even have air conditioning and cut the school days when the temperature is up.."

"St. Joseph is now destined to fail. The best leader the school ever had decided to leave the school. I've had my daughter and now my grandson attend the school and the principal was instrumental in making sure each of them succeeded. Now that the school stupidly let her leave, they will fail. Incompetent teachers who were being remediated by the principal now will get to hurt students. The Board of Directors at St. Joseph only cares about money and not about students. I've tried to contact the board and found that they are bigots. Help shave this school."

"St. Joseph High School announced that the school had successfully completed the rigorous evaluation process of the NCA CASI/AdvancED (Advancing Excellence in Education Worldwide) Accreditation protocol and was fully endorsed as a high quality school. On 3/11/10, the 6 member external Quality Assurance Review spent the day carefully assessing every aspect of the school and certified that St. Joseph not only met but far exceeded those standards. The chairman said, I have evaluated many schools and I can say unequivocally that St. Joseph is a high quality school and has successfully met all seven standards of NCA CASI/AdvancED. One team member said, St. Joseph is not only a high quality school but one that clearly demonstrates excellence. I commend the school not only on their rigorous curriculum but on their supportive relationships with stakeholders throughout the community. The community should be proud of St. Joseph. St. Joseph s initiation of AdvancED accreditation is a testimony to the school s commitment to excellence and quality."

"I am currently a student at St.Joes and I do not like it at all. The teachers are never there for help and The students are not disciplined. It is not safe. Plus their only concern is money. they make you pay for laptops we hardly ever get to use and never work. Although the athletics are decent that is the only thing. They tell you that the school is one big happy family but that is a lie. i would not suggest anyone to come to St.Joes"

"St.Joe's is a great school. People who don't like it has not been in it. The teachers are great and they are always there to help you. With the laptops, yes us students do find games, but a day later, the administration blocks it, it makes me then pay more attention during class. St. Joes is rich in diversity, really preparing me to the real world unlike Montini, or Nazereth. Nazereth and Montini are all rich snobs who compete with money. The new leadership class this year is really effective, explain a lot about being a leader that i didn't know."
