St. Joseph of the Holy Family founded St. Joseph's School in 1860 as part of its community outreach mission. At the time, the church stood as the only Catholic parish on Manhattan's west side, so even though the school started with 30 students, it quickly grew. By 1880, the school faced a problem--with close to 200 students enrolled and more joining each year, the work of its original, small staff was not enough. The school's prayers were answered in 1882, when five School Sisters of Notre Dame arrived to help. We believe that each student is unique and special and we share with parents the opportunity of nurturing a positive self-image. Our efforts to develop the totally integrated person are oriented toward making the student a liberated and educated person; one who will socially mix with others and use his/her potential to work for the human rights of all. In an atmosphere of mutual trust and security, we strive to instill in our students an understanding and appreciation of the diversity of family structures and ethnic cultures to which they belong. We strive to provide the basic skills, applied knowledge and global view needed for life experiences.

St. Joseph Elementary School is the oldest, continually operational Catholic elementary school in the City of Buffalo. St. Joseph School opened its doors in 1849 as a German school. Our mission is to provide the highest quality Catholic education possible, in an atmosphere of worship, warmth, and wisdom; and to instill the values of living Christ's word, sharing his word, and loving all without exception. We believe education is the means through which children are guided in their life-long quest of becoming responsible members of our world community. Such a pursuit involves, on our part, the earnest endeavor to discover and cultivate the individual talents of each child and the sincere effort to develop a healthy self esteem which is the basis of ultimate respect for humanity and the world. We believe we can attain this end most effectively by communicating the message of Jesus, not only by word, but also by example, thus creating a genuine faith community in which both students and staff can grow in wisdom and grace. Since love of neighbor is the touchstone of a truly Christian life, we will encourage students to engage in service outside the school community, thus carrying the gospel message to others more effectively.
