Capital Campaign

For 145 years, Saint Joseph Catholic Elementary School has been inspiring minds to learn, hearts to love, and hands to serve.
 

The Foundation is Elementary Capital Campaign

After many unforeseen delays like the pandemic and increasing inflation, we are excited to FINALLY announce that “The Foundation is Elementary” Capital Campaign, a campaign to expand Saint Joseph Catholic Elementary School will be moving forward! The Diocese has given us the “green light” to proceed with the construction of the new addition to our school. It is our hope to break ground this year. Estimated construction time thereafter: one year to one and a half years! We are still in need of your help with the remaining balance, but are thrilled to be moving forward. We thank all of our supporters for your patience and generosity over these past couple of years and for making this dream a reality. Construction will include: a full size gymnasium with kitchen, dedicated space for our extended day program, science lab, art studio and dedicated space for speech therapy, literacy programs and special needs interventions. This expansion program will provide our current students and future generations of students not only the spaces, but the programs and technologies they need to learn, play, and grow in a modern environment. All while preserving our Catholic school traditions and fulfilling a vision.

To discuss naming opportunities, legacy gifts, or more information please contact Jessica Jones, Advancement Director, 801-393-6051.

Our friends and families are our foundation and our future. You are what make this school so special and with your involvement, we will continue to build upon an already strong foundation of faith, values and academic success- preparing and propelling our students into a promising future. With much excitement and overwhelming gratitude … The Foundation is Elementary!
