St. Joseph’s Catholic School provides a challenging PreK2 through six grade curriculum, developed by the Diocese of Savannah that is based upon both national and state standards.
Our beliefs that stem from core values that are central to our faith and serve to ensure the success of our students as they become productive citizens of the world.
We offer numerous extracurricular activities to enrich a child’s education and enable him to be a well-rounded individual with a diverse set of interests.
St. Joseph’s Catholic School, a private school located in historic downtown Macon, Georgia, offers a Christian education of the highest quality to children of all faiths in grades Pre-K2 through 5th. The faculty and staff partner with our parents to provide the best educational experience for the children. St. Joseph’s Catholic School affords a balanced yet challenging academic curriculum that integrates faith, culture, and life. Our students are taught to be responsible, independent, and enthusiastic learners.
St. Joseph’s Catholic School strives to build a strong academic foundation beginning with our preschool program. Our preschool offers children age two through four with a loving environment where they can learn, grow, and play. During the elementary school years, SJS continues to foster learning in a diverse environment that embraces a collaborative approach with parents. Students are taught in a variety of learning models where they are encouraged to be creative thinkers, problem solvers, and active leaders. St. Joseph’s Catholic School provides a seamless transition to Mount de Sales Academy where the Sisters of Mercy legacy continues with the right balance of academic rigor, faith-enriching programs, and extracurricular activities.
Preparing students to be future leaders is the signature of a St. Joseph’s education.
A full-circle moment!💙🥹
Mount de Sales Academy Macon GA seniors who attended St. Joseph’s returned to "run the halls" one last time. This is a tradition for our graduating elementary class, and they repeat the tradition as high school seniors—soon, our 5th Graders will do the same.
This class of MDS students graduated SJS in 2020, so there was no running of the halls that year! It was so meaningful to have them back on campus, inspiring our students to do their best and look forward to the future of their education.
We loved greeting you in our halls once again, seniors. And we couldn’t be more proud!🕊🙏

Running the halls at MDS is a long standing tradition but we didn't get to run the halls at SJS! We did take a picture of all the SJS kids that stayed together K-12th grade though. If I remember correctly, there were 19 of us.
Thank you for the smile!
Love this tradition!!

Looks like a great time!
Loved watching all the students enjoy the day – Coach Hollie
Awesome!!
Mrs. Allman’s 2K class learned a beautiful lesson today about serving others and emulating Jesus’ love.💙
"In this lesson of washing of the feet," Mrs. Allman said, "we were reminded about Gods love for us—that he gave his one and only son for us, to take away our sins, to wash us white as snow, so that we can grow in God’s love!"
These little Knights were then challenged to go home and serve others, just like Jesus did.🙏 Thank you so much to Mrs, Allman and Miss Logan for helping our 2K students learn these vital lessons in beautiful ways.✝️

Love SJS! It’s the best!!
Mrs. Driggers’ 2nd Grade class had a very special visitor come teach them all about local government!🏛
Rev. Dr. Henry Ficklin, Executive Director of Community Affairs for Macon City Hall, taught our students about careers in government. He gave a behind-the-scenes look at how local government works and the important role it plays in serving our community.
Rev. Ficklin works directly with Mayor Lester Miller—who was actually one of his students when he was a government teacher.🙏
We’re so grateful for community leaders who take the time to inspire and educate our students!💙
