This school offers many opportunities such as dual enrollment, STEM, and other higher level courses. The teachers and staff are extremely friendly and supportive throughout your time at SJH. Not only are the academics key, SJH has great sporting teams. For example, the football team was the 2019 State Champs. In conclusion, I would greatly recommend my school as a great public school option in Louisiana.
St. James High School is a great school to attend. The school academics are amazing. The teachers work with you if you don’t understand something, they’ll make sure you get everything you need in order to be successful.
I love the administration and teacher involvement in student's concerns. Motivation is the key to success and they provide this 100%. Academic support is phenomenal. Dual enrollment courses incorporated is superb!
