St. Joseph Academy is a four-year co-educational high school located in Hammonton, in Atlantic County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey, serving students in grades 9–12. The Academy was established for the 2020-21 school year, replacing St. Joseph High School, which had operated since 1942 under the auspices of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Camden. The school is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Elementary and Secondary Schools through December 2025; The school's accreditation status was extended for seven years in Fall 2018. In 2020, the former school permanently closed because of financial problems that were exacerbated by the coronavirus pandemic and the request from the Diocese of Camden.

As of the 2021–22 school year, the school had an enrollment of 140 students and 14 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 10:1. The school's student body was 70.0% (98) White, 22.9% (32) Black, 5.0% (7) Hispanic and 2.1% (3) Asian.

History

After being established in 1935 as a combination preparatory school and seminary in 1935, the high school was opened to all attendees in 1942.

The school had seen enrollment decline from 331 students in 2015 down to 206 in 2020, a 38% decline, and was carrying more than $6 million in debt.

In April 2020, the Diocese of Camden announced that, despite its status as a football powerhouse, St. Joseph was one of five Catholic schools in New Jersey which would close permanently at the end of the school year on June 30, 2020, due to financial problems caused by lack of sufficient enrollment in recent years and lack of community fundraising, which the school reliant on less significant diocesan and parish fundraising. An offer which was made by fundraisers in June 2020 to purchase the school facility was rejected by the Diocese of Camden.

Hammonton Public Schools acquired the building, which it leased to the independent St. Joseph Academy. The academy, which opened in 2020, is not affiliated with the diocese.
