Athletics

The operation of our Athletic Program is coordinated by our Athletic Committee. The Committee consists of the athletic director(s), a treasurer, and a secretary. The Principal is an ex-officio member. The chairperson of the committee serves as an ex-officio member of the School Board.

This committee oversees the operation of the Athletic Program which is a self-supporting program. It recruits volunteer coaches, recruits eligible students, schedules practices and games, provides uniforms and equipment necessary for play, coordinates parents volunteers, and raises funds through the operation of a concessions stand and door charge.

Prior to the start of each season, a sign-up meeting is held which includes all parents of students interested in a particular sport and the members of the athletic committee. These meetings are announced in the school newsletter.

The current officers include:
          Mr. Eddie Lee, Co-Athletic Director
          Mrs. Linda Lee, Co-Athletic Director
          Mrs. Donna Stone, Assistant Athletic Director

Music Appreciation

The study of music is an important part of a child's education. Not only does it help develop critical thinking skills, creative problem solving, effective communication, and team work, but it also helps keep students engaged in school and achieve in other academic subjects such as math, science, and reading. And, it's fun! If your child loves to sing or play an instrument, perform in concerts, and compete at competitions, St. Joseph School has the class he/she needs:
