Saint Joseph School is a Catholic pre-K through eighth-grade institution located in Needham, Massachusetts. It offers a unified educational experience by combining preschool, elementary, and middle school programs on a single campus. The school traces its origins to 1939, when the Sisters of Charity of Halifax began supervising religious education for St. Joseph Parish, and it expanded over the decades to include a full middle school and an early childhood center. In the 2020-2021 school year, the three previously independent school communities were merged into one cohesive Saint Joseph School, preserving the parish's educational heritage while creating a continuous learning environment. Located in Needham and serving surrounding communities, the institution draws on a long history of Catholic education and substantial campus investments to support its program.
