St. Joseph’s Catholic School in West St. Paul is currently seeking a part-time instructional assistant for the elementary program to provide academic, social, emotional and spiritual support for our K-5 students for the 2025-26 school year and beyond. Instructional assistants work collaboratively with teachers and students; supporting learning needs, supervising and substituting in classes as needed. The ideal candidate is a flexible “team player” who demonstrates a love of faith and commitment to working with children.
Saint Joseph Church Catholic Church and School is a vibrant community that boasts a rich Catholic culture, attracts significant daily sacramental participation, promotes life (and is full of life), hosts perpetual Eucharistic Adoration (and has for more than 30 years), and cultivates fruitful vocations to the diaconate, priesthood, consecrated life, and marriage. We foster the communal life with opportunities for all ages, including social events; book studies; retreats for men, women, and youth; adult formation; works of mercy; senior gatherings; and more. We are fortunate to have one of the largest and most established Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (CGS) programs in the Archdiocese, fully-integrated within our school’s PreK-to-5th-Grade program.
Our school, a primary means of evangelization and education, has been serving young people for more than 75 years. Saint Joseph Catholic School forms joyful disciples of Jesus Christ who pursue academic excellence and cultivate a life of virtue. At the core of our school’s mission is evangelization: helping our young people to be good, faithful, and productive citizens – and even more importantly, to know and love Jesus Christ and be virtuous and active members of his Church. Our full commitment to academic excellence is not merely compatible with our school’s Catholic identity and mission, it is demanded by that very mission. We currently serve over 415 K-8 students and over 70 students in preschool.
