We're celebrating OUR Catholic School this week!



We have been celebrating Catholic Schools Week at St. Josaphat School! Throughout this past week, we have taken time to recognize what makes SJS a special place and to honor different groups within our St. Josaphat School community. 


We opened the week with an open house and Mass last Sunday. The faculty and 8th Grade students served a breakfast to parents Tuesday morning to thank our parents, who share their time and talents. 



At the end of the week, we recognized the hard work and dedication of our wonderful faculty. Thanks to the many parents who made our teacher appreciation brunch a true celebration!

Do you need a refrigerator or stove? Since our old appliances are over 10 years old, many donation sites will not accept them. They are in fine working order, just in need of some TLC. Contact the Parish Office.
Please consider a $25 donation to help fund our kitchen renovation. All donors will be recognized in the space and honored at our opening celebration. Naming Opportunities available!
