Standardized testing scores show that Saint Joseph's students are ready

Saint Joseph's students are encouraged to start standardized tests beginning in their freshman year, in order to gain experience and comfort in this important college admissions marker. The CEEB Code for Saint Joseph's Catholic Academy is 390371.
