In an effort to help parents raise saints, we’re highlighting our Catholic Schools each month! Founded in 1886, Saint Joseph Regional School, Keene (SJRS) serves students in Grades PK-8, sharing a vibrant campus in the heart of downtown Keene, along with its sister high school, Our Lady of Mercy Academy, and the Parish of the Holy Spirit, Keene NH.
As the Monadnock Region’s only PreK-8 Catholic school – and its only NEASC-accredited elementary/middle school – SJRS is known for its commitment to Catholic identity, rigorous academic curriculum and breadth of opportunities. Faith, learning and service truly come together to form hearts and minds at SJRS.
The school is deeply committed to the community through numerous partnerships with the Kiwanis Club, New Hampshire Dance Institute, Cedarcrest Center, The Community Kitchen, Ashuelot Concerts, DeMar Marathon, Pumpkin Fest, Keene State College and many others. Annual highlights of the school year include pumpkin carving night, the Christmas Concert and Pageant at The Colonial Theatre, Catholic Schools Week and International Night.
Admissions for the 2025-2026 school year are open! To learn more, visit: stjosephkeene.org
