Even though the school building is closed, educating our students must go on. During distance learning, our dedicated teachers have created engaging lessons and small group meetings to meet the needs of every student. Tours of the school will resume as soon as possible.

St. Joseph Catholic School - Distance LearningOn March 23, Gov. Ralph Northam announced that all Virginia schools remain closed for the duration of this school year because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In order to comply and keep our community safe, St. Joseph Catholic School will remain closed for this academic school year.
While we are on our extended closure, SJS will continue to use the Tuesday Bernie’s Bark and the Friday Update as primary communication tools. In the event of an immediate need to share information, we will use the school messaging system. Please also check Twitter, Facebook, SJS website, and the SJS mobile App. Distance Learning for SJS students has begun. Please check your email often for updates from teachers. Students are trained on Google classroom and have the skills to be successful distance learners. The teachers and staff need the support and cooperation of all families to make this a successful experience. If you have questions, ask, and please be willing to work with us. Together we will meet the needs of the children.
The Catholic Diocese of Arlington has extended the closing of school buildings to students until the end of the 2019-2020 academic school year. Please see a special message from Bishop Burbidge below. -
