Vision & Mission
The illustrious Educational Institution St. Joseph’s Hr. Sec School is a legacy of the 19th Century, handed down to us by the venerable fathers of the society of the foreign mission of Paris.
Mgr. Bonand who was appointed as vicar apostolic of Pondy Mission in 1836 A.D. held two synods with his priests. As an outcome of these two synods, it was decided that education of the boys and girls in towns and villages was of primeimportance. In a way this became the VISION and MISSION of St.Joseph’s.
The site of our school which had been “Colonel Garden” (Karnal Thottam) was a gift of land measuring 25.13 acres. Lt. Colonel J.Hazzelewood gave this land to Mgr. Bonand D.D. Vicar Apostolic of Pondy Mission.
On the fine winter morning of 22nd January 1868 St. Joseph’s High School was born in all humility and modesty.Rev. Fr. L. Reneuvier was the first Principal. Then in the year 1884 St. Joseph’s was raised to the status of a second grade College with humanities and mathematics. Again in 1909 it was reduced to the status of High School.
