    Overall, as a student of Saint Joseph high school, I learned a lot of information that many of my peers hadn't learned in high school. Saint Joe teaches us at a rate and level that makes us strive to achieve more! You have teachers that care and that will help you become the best person and student you can be. The principle is hard to confront and often forces her peers and teachers to make decisions that go along with her own agenda and what she wants rather than what is in the best interest of the school, sports program, and the maintaining of happiness for the teachers and students. She is very strict and many times is the reason there is turnover in educators at this institution. Overall, I would send my kids to this school mainly because I have seen the benefits of a private, catholic education has had on my life and the opportunities I have had.
    Saint Joe is a great academic school with many opportunities. There are many options to join extracurricular activities. There are many teachers that are willing to do anything to help you understand and thrive in the classes. There is tutoring offered, and teachers will come early and stay late to make sure their students are passing and understanding.
