COMMUNITY SERVICE
Service with Purpose.
At Saint Joseph, service is more than a requirement—it’s an opportunity to live out our faith, serve others, and make a meaningful difference in our community. Students grow in compassion, responsibility, and a deeper understanding of what it means to serve.
Giving Back
We strive to form students who are spiritually grounded, intellectually engaged, personally mature, and socially responsible. Through our Service Program, students develop a deeper understanding of their community and their responsibility to serve others.
Community service is an important part of the Saint Joseph experience. Each student is expected to complete service hours annually, putting the values of Jesus Christ into action and following the example of Saint Joseph the Worker. Service is not simply a requirement—it is a meaningful expression of our Christian faith.
“I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you.”
— John 13:15
Students entering Saint Joseph in Grade 9 are required to complete 140 documented service hours by graduation. Hours are recorded through InnerView and the Campus Ministry Office. Students who enroll after the first semester of ninth grade will have their service-hour requirement adjusted proportionately.
