SAINT JOSEPH SCHOOL – LA PUENTE

About

St. Joseph provides a Christ-centered and accredited education to children throughout the community!

Story

We are located in the San Gabriel Valley, in the City of La Puente, California. The school grades Transitional Kindergarten through 8, are single graded. Saint Joseph School is staffed by the Carmelite Sisters of the Most Sacred Heart of Los Angeles and by dedicated lay teachers. We have been faithfully serving in our surrounding community and parish for 65 years.

Mission

Saint Joseph School is dedicated to the growth and development of its students to be responsible and participating members of the Catholic Church and of society. Following the example of Saint Joseph, and in the spirit of Carmel we strive to develop in the students a knowledge of, love for, and practice of our Catholic faith as it has been revealed by God through His Church. Through the practice of prayer, reception of the Sacraments, devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus present in the Most Blessed Sacrament, exercise of Christian virtue, and in the respect for and service of our neighbor, we guide the children toward living these principles in the family, in peer relations, in the school community, and gradually in the wider environment of parish, neighborhood and the world.
