Focused on Faith and Learning
St. Joseph/St. Robert School Community, with Jesus as our foundation, inspires us to live fully His message of love, courage, and compassion. Our academic rigor and relevance empower us to be contributing members of the Church and the global community.
For the fourth year, SJR proudly supported The Next Step Program through a school-wide collection drive. Our school community donated craft and office supplies, outdoor activity items, and gift cards for cooking and baking activities.
Today, we were excited to welcome Two Explorer groups from TNS. Our 8th grade students presented the donations and then spent time together playing board games and enjoying conversation. It was a wonderful day for everyone! #WeAreSJR, #SJRproud, #archphilly, #AOPS_schools, @aops_schools, @TNSprograms, #TNS ... See MoreSee Less

I'm beyond impressed by the efforts of the entire SJR community. Your dedication and kindness are making a real difference in the lives of others. Keep shining! ✨
The Pre-K used their fine motor skills today to create Dr. Seuss themed activities. Fine motor activities strengthen the hand muscles and improve coordination which is needed for writing. They used tweezers to sort mini erasers, added pipe cleaner “hair” to thing 1 & thing 2. In addition the students stacked cups and played with suction cups. #WeAreSJR, #SJRproud, #archphilly, #AOPS_schools, @aops_schools . ... See MoreSee Less

Today, our younger students celebrated the birthday of Dr. Seuss as part of Read Across America Spirit Week! The Kindergarten celebrated with the reading of the book, “Fox in Socks” by Dr. Seuss and showed off there silly or mismatched socks!
The 1st grade had a fun day reading “Put Me in the Zoo” by Robert Lopshire, edited by Dr. Seuss, about a spotted animal who wants to be in the zoo but learns he’s special enough for the circus instead. The class dressed to reflect the spotted animals in the book! What a great start to a spirited week of reading! #WeAreSJR, #SJRproud, #archphilly, #AOPS_schools, @aops_schools ... See MoreSee Less

the kids choir sounded so beautiful. Great job Elaine Johnson, that's one heck of a group. Love hearing this and seeing the school kids receiving ashes.
Once again this year, we are thrilled to support The Next Step Program, a local nonprofit that empowers young adults with disabilities through life skills instruction, job support, and social opportunities. We are continuing to collect gift cards and supplies for participants’ daily activities and skill-building lessons through Friday, February 20th. Please go to the link in our weekly newsletter to sign up for a gift card or supplies.
Our 8 th grade will be delivering the items to TNS in the next few weeks. They will take a tour of the facility and have an opportunity to spend time with the young adults in the program. Thank you for your support. #WeAreSJR, #SJRproud, #archphilly, #AOPS_schools, @aops_schools , #tns, @tnsprograms ... See MoreSee Less
