  • Zumbathon - Thank You!

    A huge thank you to everyone who danced, donated, and supported our Zumbathon on Friday!  Students alternated between Zumba and walking to raise money for our new playground.  Watching the students bop around to the high-energy music was truly heartwarming.  The whole event was energizing and fun!  

     We would like to thank all our families for their generous pledges and support.  We thank all our volunteers who worked so hard to contribute to the success of this very special event!  A final thank you to our wonderful staff for their hard work, dedication and commitment!  The entire St. James community worked together to help make Zumbathon a great success!

    Happy Mother’s Day to all of the Moms, Grandmas, Aunties, Godmothers and friends of the school!  Thank you for entrusting your children into our care.  We pray that God will continue to bless you and we hope your Mother’s Day is as fabulous as you are!

    “Almighty God, we ask Your blessing on each mother today. Fill their hearts with laughter and joy. Surround them with love from family and friends. Grant them health, peace, and fulfillment as they pursue their calling. Let them know their value and worth in Your eyes and ours. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”

  • Staffing News

    There will be some staffing changes for next year. We are sad to say that Mrs. Hunger and Mrs. Doyle will be moving on to other adventures in their lives, and will not be back at St. James for the 2025 – 2026 school year. We will miss them, and thank them so very deeply, for their many years of committed and dedicated service to the St. James community. And we wish them all God’s blessings as they move forward.

    At St. James, Mrs. Bryson, Mrs. Lewis, and Mr. Bittante are in the process of interviewing teachers for next year. Stay tuned!
