Additional Info:

Other: Rigorous academics, competitive athletics, and nationally recognized arts classes combine to create Central Alabama’s most engaging independent school environment at Saint James (STJ). Montgomery’s oldest independent school, Saint James provides the most well-rounded course offerings in the area, blending superior academics and state-of-the-art technology with absorbing enrichment, exploratory, and college elective classes. Since its founding in 1955, Saint James School has always focused on educating the whole child. And with this focus, programs embracing STEAM have always been part of the Saint James curriculum every day, at all grade levels. These skills, along with writing across the curriculum, make Saint James the premier college preparatory school in the Montgomery area. Saint James School envelops students in a 21st-century learning environment, providing iPads® for Grades 3 – 12, and regular access to technology in lower elementary and preschool classes. The school’s talented and dedicated faculty, almost half of whom have masters or doctoral degrees, is a vital component of the learning equation, creating a welcoming yet challenging atmosphere to help students from Grades Pre-K3 – 12 reach their highest potential. As the students make great strides academically, they also grow personally, learning to become young men and women of character who are self-motivated, intellectually curious, reflective, and articulate. Students participate in a minimum of four school-wide service projects annually, with additional opportunities to serve our local community. Saint James has had 9 National Merit Scholarship Finalists and 16 National Merit Commended Students in the past five years. Graduates of Saint James have earned over $30.5 million in scholarships awarded over last 5 years, with 100% of our students accepted to 4-year institutions.
