School Overview

                 St. Joseph High School is a private Catholic all-boys college Preparatory school located on a seventy-acre tract of land in Metuchen and Edison, New Jersey.   It is conducted by the Brothers of the Sacred Heart, who have been active in American education since their arrival from Lyons France in 1847. From 1901 to 1961  St. Joseph’s served as a center for training and educating Brothers prior to their apostolate in Catholic education. The main school building was dedicated in the spring of 1963.

The faculty is comprised of competent lay and religious educators.   The vision guiding Saint Joseph is that of the gospels and Catholic tradition.  The school draws students from a wide geographic area encompassing over forty school districts and over seventy-five grammar schools in Middlesex, Somerset, and Union Counties, as well as other outlying areas. 

Saint Joseph High School admits students of any race, color, national ethnic origin or creed to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded to or made available to students at the school.  It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin in the administration of its educational, admission, and athletic policies.   

Because St. Joseph High School is a Catholic high school all students, without exception, fully participate in our program of religious studies and worship services.
