St. James Catholic School will kick off their celebration of Catholic Schools Week with an Open House on Sunday, January 29, 2012 from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at 140 North Avenue in Highwood. We are ready to enroll your child(ren) in PK through grade 8 for the 2012-2013 school year!
Our faith based curriculum is an excellent setting for our outstanding academic programs which meet common core standards along with Archdiocese of Chicago guidelines. Smart boards and other cutting edge, state of the art technologies are standard in each classroom. In addition, physical education, music, band and art programs help to achieve our mission to educate children in mind, body and spirit. Low teacher-to-student ratios and a total commitment to giving every child personal attention is very important at St. James School as we offer differentiated instruction. Before and after school care is available in our warm, welcoming, child-centered environment.
The entire school community creates an enthusiasm for lifelong learning that prepares children to become adults who are faithful members of the Church, socially responsible, and loyal citizens of the world community. St. James School is Catholic, excellent and vital! At St. James School the sense of family on the part of students and staff, the emphasis on self-worth and acceptance of all, the visible Catholic character of the school, all make it an excellent setting for the education and development of children.
Your child will be challenged at St. James School; challenged to grow academically, spiritually, physically and emotionally. Give your child a strong foundation for a lifetime of confidence, faith, and service. We'd love to show you our school where both children’s hearts and minds grow!
