Having an awesome experience! This is a place where kids are allowed to be kids while being supported and experiencing individualized learning. Teachers are creative, warm, and nurturing. PBL is another added bonus with lots of hands-on learning opportunities. SJA is known for their theater program. This is a great place for curious and imaginative learners.
SJA has been a wonderful place for my children to grow and learn. Having a child with some learning differences definitely made us consider other options, however, we chose to stick with St. James Academy, and couldn't be happier. They have been very helpful with our learning plan and the lower school reading/resource specialist has been phenomenal. The middle school has gone through some transition with teachers over the past several years, however, I feel at this time the school has some of the best MS teachers ever at SJA. The teamwork and dedication of each of the teachers is beyond awesome! We are so pleased with the education our children are receiving.
Our family has been involved with St. James Academy for 10 years. We could not be happier with the outcomes for our children. The preK-8 experience is priceless and largely misunderstood. SJA's middle school is excellent. It not only prepared our children to be accepted at the best high schools in the area, but to have the wisdom to choose the school that best fit with who they were becoming as individuals. The school struggled with leadership around the time we joined the community. This turned around about 4 years ago with a new head of school. She was able to attract talented administrators and teachers. The sports and arts programs are inclusive and excellent. The school’s Episcopalian values of compassion, advocacy and justice fit with our family’s values even though we are not Episcopalian SJA is a small school where you child will be safe and have the chance to develop skills of leadership and integrity. We could not be happier with our choice.
