Governance
St. Joseph School is a non-profit Catholic Church sponsored Pre-K to grade eight elementary school governed by the policies and practices established by the school office of the Archdiocese of Newark, New Jersey.
The daily operation of the school is under the direct supervision of the principal, in cooperation with the pastor of St. Joseph’s Church.
In accordance with the policies established by the Archdiocese of Newark, there is an elected School Advisory Board, made up of not more than 12 members. The Pastor and principal sit as ad hoc members on a permanent basis. Eleven members are elected for a three year term, which may be renewed once, for a total of six consecutive years. One member may be appointed by the Pastor, at his discretion. This board meets monthly and works with the school principal and the pastor in an advisory capacity in the areas of curriculum, school climate, finance, public relations, fund raising, and maintenance.
