Academics

Curriculum:

St. Joseph Regional offers a challenging academic curriculum based on Camden diocesan standards as well as the NJ standards. Beside academic enrichment within the subject areas, the students also have weekly instruction in World Language (Spanish), Music, Computer Technology, Art, and Physical Education. Upper grades are departmentalized to allow for more in depth approaches to the subject areas as well as to prepare for high school scheduling. A state of the art Library provides additional resources to the teachers and students.

SIS – Student Information System (formerly Churchwerks):

This system allows parents to readily see students’ grades, long range assignments, and attendance records. Passwords are needed to access records. Parents should frequently view student data and update personal information as needed.

Child Study

It is at times necessary for a teacher to recommend evaluation of a child for academic, social, and/or emotional reasons.  Early assessment of possible problem areas does help most children for whom it is suggested.  Our school works with Salem County Educational Services Commission.
