Principal's Note

To our Alumni and Benefactors...

“YOU ARE THE FOUNDATION OF OUR SCHOOL”

Our Elementary School Wall of Honor

As principal of the Elementary School, I am proud to announce the “Wall of Honor” that we have established as a Fundraiser.  As you enter the building, and go up the stairs, each brick can be purchased for $100.00.  A gold plate will then be placed on the brick with the engraved name and year of graduation. Individuals or families are invited to participate.

This fundraiser will directly benefit the Elementary School financially but it will also be a wonderful display for the present students and their families to visually recognize those who went before them.  St. Joseph of the Palisades Elementary School has a long tradition of exemplary Catholic education.

Please help spread the news among our alumni and be sure to mark May 22, 2011 on your calendar for our first annual St. Joseph of the Palisades Elementary School Heritage Celebration.  More information will be circulated in the next few weeks.

Any questions or interest in participating in these activities may be directed to Peggy Schiebel at (201) 854-7006 or myself, Eileen Donovan-Ferrando, (201) 861-3227.

Thank you for your support!

 
 

Special Message from our Principal...

I have been blessed with a rewarding and productive career in education.  Never has the need for, and value of, a Catholic Education been more apparent.  It is with this conviction and commitment to our mission that our hand picked and assembled team of educational professionals embark on a new school year, filled with educating and nurturing the children entrusted to our care.

You have made a wise and bold choice in becoming a member of the St. Joseph of the Palisades Family.

Although all will not be easy, know that the results of your, and our, sacrifices for our children will have a profound impact on their lives - and on all of those who surround them.

Our mission is clear, our resolve is absolute.  Welcome to the St. Joseph's Family.
