The Apostolic Carmel Congregation, founded by Venerable Mother Veronica of the Passion in 1968 in Bayonne, France, established its presence in Mangalore in 1870 at St. Ann’s Campus. The primary focus was on the comprehensive development of Indian women through a solid Catholic education, fostering deep faith in God and themselves.

Joseph’s Higher Primary School English Medium Mysore was granted in 1977- 1978.
Responding to the repeated requests from the people, the Apostolic Carmel embraced the challenge, and in 1989 – 1990 St. Joseph’s High School was founded with 58 students, obtaining Permanent Recognition for grade VIll to X in 1992 -1993. The inaugural SSLC batch (1991-92) took their Board Examination through St. Matthias High School.
