driving our high academic and spiritual standards, family
enrichment events, co-curricular clubs, and overall vision of our
school. Our parents show their children they are interested in
their day-to-day school life and value our larger school community
by helping with homework, volunteering in the classroom, sharing a
hobby or skill, coaching a sport, attending school events, and by
volunteering their time to make our school community better.

promotes critical thinking, and provides students with the
opportunity to obtain skills needed to be successful, compassionate
learners for the future. Our curriculum based on science,
technology, engineering, arts, and math (STEAM) engages students of
all academic levels. It promotes a deeper understanding of
real-world concepts and helps students to become critical thinkers,
thoughtful listeners, and effective speakers. SJ23`s co-curricular
environment allows differentiated instruction and encourages
creative expression as students develop socially, intellectually,
emotionally, physically, and spiritually.
