Religion, Responsibility and Respect

 

St. Joseph School is rooted in the Catholic Faith, .... faith in God, family life, and Christian values. The three basic R's, Religion, Respect and Responsibility, play a very important role in building St. Joseph's school community.


Religion

Theology is the study of God, His creation and Salvation History. Recognizing God's tremendous love the teaching of Religion stresses how persons may live following Sacred Scripture; that prayer is essential in the life of a Christian; that the reception of the Sacraments and use of the Sacraments strengthens faith and grace.


Responsibility

Recognizing that each person has special talents which should be respected and nurtured, teachers and parents must hold children responsible for their own behavior and academic performance. Communication between parents and teachers should be as frequent as the needs of the individual child require.



Respect

Respect for each person and property is basic. Polite behavior is expected toward other children and adults in the school. Defacing and / or destroying school property ( books, etc.) is not tolerated. Politeness is greatly encouraged. Infringement on a person's rights will have a consequence depending on the seriousness of the action.
