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.
Let it be known to all who enter here that CHRIST:
- is the reason for this school
- is the unseen but ever-present teacher in its classes
- is the model of its faculty
- is the inspiration of its students
