Saint Joseph: A College Preparatory School Reviews
Rating 3.97 out of 5 106 reviews
While many Catholic Schools are closing, Saint Joseph High School continues to grow and reach new heights. SJHS continues to be the best choice for young men in Central New Jersey. Excellent academic programs paired with strong athletic offerings, thrilling clubs and activities, and a Campus Ministry program based in service, brotherhood, and spiritual development all create a unique atmosphere that appeals to a broad range of students. Numerous successful alumni have benefited from the amazing programs at Saint Joseph High School and the connections they have made with other successful alumni. Furthermore, many have sent their sons to continue in the tradition of excellence. If I could do it again, I would do it in a heartbeat. I am looking forward to sending my sons their and having them join my nephews as well. Keep up the amazing work SJHS. It is worth every penny! In fact, I earned nearly twice the amount in college scholarships than in all 4 years of SJHS tuition combined.
Everyone has a different high school journey, but I was shocked to hear many and I mean many people did not like their high school. Saint Joseph's Metuchen for me was a great experience. The school advertised a brotherhood and it definitely has felt like that. I have made lots of connections from participating in the football and lacrosse team. As always, there are some complaints to be made on some teachers, but that happens in every school.
After attending another high school Freshman and half of Sophomore year we decided to transfer our son to St, Joes'. Sending him to St Joe's was the best decision we ever made. The teachers pushed him to excel and it was an environment where it was expected for you to do well academically even as an an athlete. His grades got better and he ended up in a top college after graduating with a 4.5 GPA and a 1540 SAT. The school is second to none!
