Admission Process

Two 1st graders at St. Joseph the Worker School proudly display necklaces they made honoring the Saints.

We are excited that you are considering enrolling your student at St. Joseph the Worker School in Orefield, Pennsylvania. Our partnership with families — and the success of our students — begins with a thoughtful and welcoming enrollment process.

Serving Preschool 2 through 8th grade, St. Joseph the Worker School partners with families throughout Orefield and the greater Lehigh Valley to provide a strong academic foundation rooted in faith and community.

Admission begins by submitting an online application. Once the application is reviewed and all criteria are met, an enrollment offer will be extended. Families will then be asked to complete and submit an online enrollment packet to finalize registration.

We encourage families to apply early, as space may be limited in certain grade levels.
