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 very warm welcome to Mrs. Rose Stevenson! Mrs. Stevenson will be joining the 1st Grade classroom at SJS!💙🥳💛
Mrs. Stevenson is a United States Air Force veteran from North Kingsville, Ohio, a very small town on the coast of Lake Erie.💛 She met her husband, Andrew, while serving as an analyst. Once they started a family, Mrs. Stevenson separated from the Air Force and stayed home with her children until her youngest began school. She has been teaching elementary school for five years and just recently earned a M.Ed. from Thomas University.
Mrs. Stevenson has lived all over the world due to her time in the Air Force. While stationed in Okinawa, she fell in love with snorkeling, which is still one of her favorite things to do! She and her family moved to Middle Georgia last summer to support her husband's move to Robins AFB. Prior to moving, Mrs. Stevenson taught at St. John the Evangelist Catholic School. She taught in Bibb County Schools last year and is so excited to return to Catholic School! She loves sharing her faith with her students, and feels so blessed to teach in such a beautiful and welcoming community.
Thank you to Mrs. Stevenson and her husband for their service! We are so grateful to have you joining St. Joseph's!🕊✝️

A warm welcome to our newest Kindergarten aide—Mrs. Mollie Germann! Mrs. Germann will be working in Mrs. Johns' classroom.💙🥳
Mrs. Germann was born in Lexington, KY, but her family moved to GA when she was 13. She received her BA from Augusta University and her MA from Loyola University of Chicago. She taught for a year at MDS, where her husband Gabe still teaches and their three children are enrolled. She also served on the leadership team for two faith-based mom groups during her stay-at-home mom years.✝️
Mrs. Germann has worked in childcare and taught elementary-level Sunday School—she even worked as the Religious Education Coordinator at St. Joseph Church from 2019-2024!
Fun facts! The Germann family has two rescue cat siblings named Hobbes and Lucy! Mrs. Germann's favorite book is The Lord of the Rings and she likes to go thrifting in her free time. Mrs. Germann says she's looking forward to having coloring, learning, movement, singing, sunshine, and conversations about God be a part of her work day!
We are so excited to have you, Mrs. Germann!💙🙏🕊

Mrs. Wiggins connection to Catholic schools began in 8th grade, and she's grateful to return to that faith-filled environment. Recently widowed, Mrs. Wiggins has five precious children (two of whom will be joining her at St. Joseph’s this year!🥳) and one lively tuxedo cat.💙
Outside of school, Mrs. Wiggins' children keep her exceptionally busy, but when she can she loves to get away to Target or to the mountains or beach. She looks forward to collaborating with this wonderful community, supporting our students' growth, and contributing to the school's mission.

The St. Joseph's curriculum gives students the intellectual and spiritual foundation they need to thrive throughout their childhood and far beyond. We form curious, capable learners who pursue truth, meet challenges with confidence, and live their faith with purpose.✝️
The Diocese of Savannah provides St. Joseph's with a continuously updated curriculum that is academically challenging, developmentally appropriate, and in alignment with national and state standards. Encouraging life-long, self-reflective learners to grow in both intellectual wisdom and spiritual grace is at the center of all we do here. Each student is required to participate in every subject area taught at his or her grade level, which includes core academic subjects as well as Religion, Arts, Spanish, Media/Technology, and Physical Education.
