We currently have students from 15 different school districts, 17 different cities, and 15 different Parishes of the Diocese of Harrisburg and beyond. Our goal is to prepare each and every single one of them what they need to be successful at their schools respectively. The diversity of our students improves their lifelong social communication skills.

Our Belief on Service
Rooted in the Gospel's call to love and serve others, Catholic education emphasizes community service as a means of embodying faith in action. By engaging in service, students develop empathy, compassion, and a deeper understanding of social justice, fostering a lifelong commitment to serving those in need. Furthermore, community service strengthens the connection between the school and the wider community, creating a network of support and collaboration that benefits all involved.
All students at SJS will participate in service projects throughout the year inside and outside of their community. Some big, some small, but we strive to instill in each and every child, that God is calling them to serve others, especially those in need.
