St. Joseph's Prep

St. Joseph's Preparatory School...St. Joe's Prep...'The Prep.' \\Go anywhere in the Delaware Valley and say those words and people will know. They will know the excellence produced here since 1851. They will know that a graduate of St. Joseph's Prep is more than just a scholar. Preppers are leaders in business, in education, in law, in politics. They are 'men for and with others' who serve their families, their churches, their communities.\\At the Prep, we're proud of our Jesuit heritage, as well as our downtown location and its front-and-center access to all the culturally-rich 'classrooms' a thriving metropolis like Philadelphia has to offer--field museums, famed sports facilities (like the Palestra at Penn), the Schuylkill River, and more arts and entertainment than you can shake an orchestra baton at.\\With a 'campus' like this, it's no wonder our students come out with a well-rounded perspective, a transformed sense of humility and justice, and an ever-open eye toward their city, their fellow citizens...and an entire world of possibilities ahead of them.
