VISION

ABOUT SCHOOL
Our Institution, which is 148 years old, is one of the Pioneer institutions of Jabalpur in the field of education. The great traditions of the past are maintained and improved upon as the years go by. The top priority of our school is the overall development of the pupils, through various activities with special emphasis on moral values and academic excellence. Due importance to physical development through games and sports is also given. Thus in keeping with the motto of our school “Virtue Alone Ennobles”, every year our institution turns out young women of character, balanced in mind, body and spirit- in service of mankind and the nation. Education must be a partnership between the school and parents if we are to prepare our children well to meet the challenges . May our Divine Guru fulfill our vision and aspirations for all the students who pass through the portals of S.J.C.
SCHOOL EMBLEM
” VIRTUE ALONE ENNOBLES “
Every institution has an emblem which gives it, its particular identity. so also St.Joseph’s convent Sr. Sec. School has its own significant emblem with its motto inscribed on a shield. Every Josephite must know his/her emblem and its meaning and be worthy of it.
Inscribed within the emblem is the school motto “Virtue Alone Ennobles”. It is virtue alone that makes a student, not her/his education, not her colour, not her/ his race or caste to which she/he may belong.To become noble in character is an arduous life-long task, “Rome was not built in a day”.
The Lily is symbolic of the pure life of St.Joseph.Every Josephite must strive to be gentle, simple, pure and good, for that is the glorious flower of Humankind.
PRINCIPAL'S DESK
I believe my role as an educator is to guide and nurture the next generation to establish skills to achieve health, respect, prosperity and fulfillment.
I am passionate about students being empowered to succeed. As Principal, I use all tools available to inspire staff, students and community to work together to promote student achievement and well-being.
I am an avid supporter of effective and innovative professional development that encourages teachers and principals to be reflective and to continuously examine our practice to provide quality teaching and learning for each student. My role as Principal is to keep up with latest trends and research and be an active partner in the school’s professional development.
The ability to be innovative and creative is important to me. I enjoy being challenged and inspired by the people around me. I aim to enthuse and challenge staff and students to also be inventive and imaginative in their learning and day to day tasks.
I believe that having quality, inspirational and passionate teachers is essential to a school’s success. To borrow John Hattie’s words; “teachers should build classroom climates where errors are welcome, student engagement is the norm, questioning is high and students gain reputations as effective learners.”
