As a member of the Diocese of Metuchen, Saint Joseph School, adapts rather than adopts, the various subject areas from the State of New Jersey Curriculum and Content Standards. We infuse the curriculum with the content and strategy to assist each child in reaching his or her greatest potential.

In addition to the above, Saint Joseph School is part of an ongoing curriculum mapping project. Curriculum maps specify learning objectives and outcomes for students. However, teachers have flexibility to teach content based on their individual teaching styles.

The Diocese of Metuchen has aligned our Catholic Schools with the defining characteristics of the National Standards and Benchmarks for effective Elementary and Secondary Schools. By these standards, our students are prepared to live faith-filled lives that reflect a Catholic world view.
