About

In 1908, the Sisters of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary began a teaching ministry in classrooms located in the original St. Joseph Church structure in Fairhaven, Massachusetts in the Diocese of Fall River. When a new church was built in 1924, the original structure was redesigned to serve exclusively as a parochial school. 

Under the guidance of the Sisters of the Sacred Hearts, demands for admission to the parish school grew. This resulted in the construction and dedication of a new school building in 1964. Currently, Saint Joseph School continues to provide a quality Catholic education for children in grades preschool through eight.

The school community is dedicated to promoting a Catholic faith environment in which the student’s growth as a person is central to all its work. Our faculty is composed of individuals whose common purpose is to teach the whole child. We are committed to the vision and values of Christ’s way of life.
