St. James Elementary School

Greetings and welcome to St. James School!  Elementary is an exciting time when children embark upon new adventures in the world of learning.  Each year provides important transitions and the acquisition of new skills that will enhance each student’s ability to apply learning in many ways.  St. James School is committed to providing a challenging and rigorous curriculum that helps each student progress at a developmentally appropriate rate and provides a safe environment for all students. 

Mother Teresa powerfully captures important wisdom about how to navigate life (and schooling) to make it more complete and significant. Teaching and learning offers numerous opportunities to concentrate on a number of “small things” that culminate over time to develop students that are prepared to do the “great things” of life. As a school community, we are judged by the actions of our students and the way new student learning connects and impacts the world beyond our school. 

It is an honor to be a member of the St. James family in both academics and faith. I am privileged to work alongside an amazing group of educators and staff that are compassionate, dedicated, and effective. They create engaging and exciting learning opportunities that are meaningful . St. James School is a very special place to learn and grow. We are proud of our students and have high expectations for each and every one.  Our students are kind, caring, and inquisitive.  We strive to make connections with students to help them feel valued, accepted, and safe. St. James School encourages active student engagement to foster a lifetime love for learning.
