St. James Lutheran Elementary School Reviews
Rating 5 out of 5 6 reviews
We absolutely love St. James! The teachers, faculty, and staff take the time to build relationships not only with the students but their families as well. Once you are at St. James, you’re a member of the family! Our children started in the Early Childhood program and have developed strong bonds with their classmates as well as their teachers. The activities they provide focus on growing the whole child. The focus on play and outdoor play specifically is wonderful to see. They offer several athletic teams and extracurricular clubs and are looking to expand in the future. The opportunities are endless at St. James!
My son graduated from St James several years ago. He went there from 5th to 8th grade. The instruction is excellent. The curriculum is rigorous - good preparation for high school. The upper grades had a science fair every year. There is a computer lab. The teachers are very caring and know their subjects well. Good extracurricular activities - band, lots of different sports, scouts. Many years there was a class play and the students always made a great performance. Hot lunch served daily, and the library is well stocked. My son went to the afterschool program at times and it was fine. They have a really well equipped playground. Now: this is a Christian school. Students attend chapel weekly and have religious lessons every day, including memorizing Bible verses. Students' behaviors are expected to demonstrate a Christian attitude. There is also a dress code, but it isn't too strict. My son has graduated from college and I credit some of his success to St James' education.
What a fantastic Christ centered school with great academics and athletics with a family centered approach! Daily Chapel. Wonderful historic building with great updates in recent years. Great basketball venue for the basketball teams. Resources are tremendous and everyone is so gracious! Needs are met quickly when a family has financial difficulties. Couldn't recommend this school more!
