St. Joseph Catholic School, which celebrated its 50th anniversary last year, is creating a database of its alumni and encourages former students to reconnect with the school.

“St. Joseph Catholic School has fostered the personal, academic, and spiritual growth of children for more than 50 years,” said Sister Susan Marie Hazenski, who was named principal of St. Joseph Catholic School last spring. “We invite our former students to renew their relationship with the school and rekindle friendships. Our alumni and students are our legacy.”

To be included on the St. Joseph Catholic School alumni database, send contact information to the following e–mail address: stjoescolumbia@yahoo.com. Contact information should include: name, maiden name, address, e–mail address, preferred phone number, and graduation year or years attended.

In addition, alumni/ alumnae are encouraged to include their fondest memory of attending St. Joseph Catholic School and what they are doing now.

St. Joseph Catholic School was founded in 1954 to serve families in greater Columbia. The school serves children in 4–year–old kindergarten through six grade, with two classes offered in each grade. The school’s enrollment is 344.
