Saint Joseph Regional High School

ACCEPTED STUDENTS NIGHT:

Spend a Day with the Knights
St. Joseph Regional High School sponsors a unique program where an 8th grader can spend a day at St. Joseph. In our "Spend a Day with the Knights" program a current 8th grader can experience what it is like to be a St. Joseph student.

Here is how the program works:

• A student requests permission from his 8th grade principal and teachers;
• He contacts the St. Joseph Admissions Office and arranges the day which he would like to attend;
• He shows up at St. Joseph in school dress ready to be matched up with a current Freshmen and attend classes.
  
  

We strongly encourage interested students to take advantage of this program. If you are thinking of spending 4 years with us, spend one day and you will realize that St. Joseph is a special place. In addition, if you would like to apply for admission, please click on the link for the admissions form and send to Mr. Doherty.
