== History ==
The priests of the Paris Foreign Missions Society began running a school for European boys on Museum Road in 1904 and decided decades later to reach out to poor Catholics and established an Indian boys boarding school at St Joseph’s Commerce College on Brigade Road. In 1972 this St. Joseph's Indian school moved to its present campus. The [[Sports Authority of India]] aided the school in building a swimming pool, gymnasium and hostel. A new building for the high school and PU College was completed in December 2006. In 2007, St. Joseph’s Community College began to develop on the campus. It caters to rural unemployed youth and prepares them for gainful employment.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.karnatakajesuits.org/education-sjihs.php |title=St. Joseph's Indian High School |publisher=Karnataka Jesuits |date=2019 |access-date=2017-08-29}}</ref>
