St.Joseph Academy has by far made an impact on my life. I came to the school at first in 2016 and I automatically fell in love with being there, the people, and the environment. I was getting really good education there and I made really good friends. The environment was family oriented, caring and happy. I hadn't been happier in a school environment. There were some teachers (math department and social studies environment) that did not know what they were doing and did not teach well. There are still some teachers at the school that don't know how to teach still. The school has became almost like a jail over the past year. It has taken away from the family oriented feeling of walking into the school. During my last year, I have no enjoyed being there like the other years.
I kind of enjoyed attending this school. The pros are that the class sizes are pretty small and the teachers are always willing to help. I admire how the students are able to use chrome books throughout the day to do homework. The school offers Dual Enrollment on campus which is good. The cons are that I find the academics not challenging enough for students that want to excel. They also push the Catholic agenda too much on students. I wish that there was more community involvement in the school, most of the clubs only meet once a month and don't do much. The school itself is old and facilities need to be updated. They strive to keep the 100% college acceptance and throw the kids into community college if they don't apply. The colleges that the students apply to aren't that impressive. I believe going to a public school wouldn't have made a difference; I wouldn't waste my money going here, but it is the only option for a private education in the county.
Small class sizes and students/teachers all know each other. Everyone is incredibly friendly and helpful. They want you to succeed. I'd like to see some updating in the classrooms and restrooms. The football field also needs updating, however the school has plans to do this. They just need to raise the $.
