Our School

Mission Statement

St. James Catholic School’s mission is to provide a Christ-centered education that forms the whole person, fostering intellectual and moral virtues through rigorous academics and a deep love for truth, beauty, and goodness. Rooted in the Catholic tradition and modeled after the early Church, our school embraces a missionary spirit, where educators answer the call to teach as joyful witnesses of the Gospel, freely offering themselves in service to this sacred mission. We cultivate excellence in mind and character, inspiring students to pursue holiness and seek heaven through a transformative relationship with Christ, which we joyfully witness to the world.

Vision Statement

St. James Catholic School provides a sanctuary of learning where children are formed in wisdom, virtue, and joyful discipleship. We equip students with the tools of lifelong learning and awaken in them a wonder for all that is truly good, beautiful, and true. In partnership with families—their first educators—we foster a love of God for all students that enlightens minds, shapes hearts, and fixes their eyes on heaven.
