A Message from Coach Church- Graduation Help
Attention St. Joseph Football Community.  If you have been by the high school lately you have seen that construction is underway on our new turf field.  We are very excited for this project and thankful to the Upton family for making it happen.  As a result of the construction our 2018 graduation will need to be moved down to Shadowland Pavilion.  This is major undertaking and we need the St. Joseph Football Community to help out.  We have been asked to take care of the chair takedown after graduation.  We need as many people as possible who are associated with the St. Joseph Football program to show up Sunday June 3rd at 8:30 PM down at Shadowland Pavilion and help stack chairs after graduation has finished.  The graduates will be gone by this time and there will be plenty of parking downtown. 
Thanks for your support,  Coach Church
