St. Joseph School

St. Joseph School has served the Tampa Community for the past 105 years. From its beginning under the Sisters of Holy Names to the installation of the first Salesian Sisters in 1925, St. Joseph School has educated more than 30,000 of Tampa's youth. Our parish school seeks to provide academic excellence in a Catholic setting for early childhood through eighth grade.

As a community of faith we are challenged to ensure the future of St. Joseph Catholic School for at least the next 100 years. As the Salesian Sisters prepare to celebrate their centenary of service in the USA (1908-2008) we commit ourselves to make St. Josephs “Star of Hope” shine bright as we
