Our Programs

Programs provided by the school include:

Physical Education: All grades participate in gym weekly. Our energetic Gym teacher Mrs. Condon finds fun ways to keep the kids active through sports and games. A schedule is published close to the start of school informing parents which days are gym days (split by grade) for uniform purposes.

Art Program: Students will have 1 scheduled art class each week. Under the direction of artist and educator, Philip McGaw, the Saint Joseph School art curriculum for Kindergarten through Grade 8 is centered around learning the elements of art and design. Throughout this structure, discussions and activities include an incorporation of art history, color theory and critical thinking, often incorporating subject matter which is of specific interest to a particular class.

Music Program:The goal of our music program is to teach age appropriate music and music theory in a fun, positive, and interactive environment. Each class will have a scheduled music lesson every week with our Music teacher Mrs. Burton. They will also prepare for many concerts throughout the year.

Buddy Program: Each student in the lower grades will receive a "buddy" in the upper grade for the year. Older Buddies will assist the teachers in walking the younger kids to Mass, celebrate Holidays and do fun activities together on Friday afternoons. This all helps foster the relationship between our younger and older students.

Detroit Leadership and Environmental Education Program (D-LEEP)

For many Detroit youth, green spaces are inaccessible, local opportunities to connect to the natural world are scarce and STEM education lacks local context. To help bridge this gap, the Detroit Leadership and Environmental Education Program (D-LEEP) strengthens relationships between high school students and their families with the natural world in Detroit and beyond.

The National Wildlife Federation (NWF) Great Lakes Regional Center’s D-LEEP program builds on our decades of expertise connecting people and the outdoors by mobilizing students, teachers, and community organizations to create accessible green spaces and healthier, more resilient communities.

Through an outdoor-based curriculum and on-site school sustainability projects, students will develop leadership skills and are exposed to green/STEM careers. D-LEEP is growing the next generation of environmental leaders and creating more green spaces at a time when we need them the most. How the Program Works The D-LEEP program connects with students through after-school clubs. Clubs are co-led by a teacher and NWF staff, in close collaboration with community partners and the Detroit Public Schools. Students design and complete an on-site sustainability project, participate in a wide range of outdoor experiences, engage in hands-on learning about green careers, and develop leadership skills.

During the summer months, NWF staff work with students to expose them to green career opportunities and help them find summer employment, internships, and job shadowing opportunities. By engaging students and their families in outdoor activities and community-based sustainability projects and connecting youth to job and skills development opportunities, we simultaneously help to foster more resilient ecological and human communities and support the next generation of leaders.
Mission

The International Baccalaureate® (IB) aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect.

To this end the IB works with schools, governments and international organizations to develop challenging programmes of international education and rigorous assessment. These programmes encourage students across the world to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right.

The IB Diploma Programme

Life in the 21st century, in an interconnected, globalized world, requires critical-thinking skills and a sense of international-mindedness, something that International Baccalaureate® (IB) Diploma Programme students come to know and understand.

What is the Diploma Programme?

The IB Diploma Programme is designed as an academically challenging and balanced programme of education with final examinations that prepare students, normally aged 16 to 19, for success at university and life beyond. The programme is normally taught over two years and has gained recognition and respect from the world's leading universities.

The curriculum

IB Diploma Programme students study six courses at higher level or standard level. Students must choose one subject from each of groups 1 to 5, thus ensuring breadth of experience in languages (English and a Global Language), Social Studies or Business, Sciences and Mathematics. The sixth subject may be an arts subject chosen from group 6, or the student may choose another subject from groups 1 to 5.

In addition the programme has three core requirements that are included to broaden the educational experience and challenge students to apply their knowledge and understanding.

The extended essay is a requirement for students to engage in independent research through an in-depth study of a question relating to one of the subjects they are studying.

Theory of knowledge is a course designed to encourage each student to reflect on the nature of knowledge by critically examining different ways of knowing (perception, emotion, language and reason) and different kinds of knowledge (scientific, artistic, mathematical and historical).

Creativity, activity & service require that students actively learn from the experience of doing real tasks beyond the classroom. Students can combine all three components or do activities related to each one of them separately.

What is the IB learner profile?

The IB learner profile is the IB mission statement translated into a set of learning outcomes for the 21st
century.

The learner profile provides a long-term vision of education.

It is a set of ideals that can inspire, motivate and focus the work of schools and teachers, uniting them in a common purpose.

IB learners strive to be:
- Inquirers
- Knowledgeable
- Thinkers
- Communicators
- Principled
- Open-minded
- Caring
- Risk-takers
- Balanced
- Reflective
