St. James the Less Catholic School is a Christ-centered environment that nurtures lifelong learners who glorify God.

At St. James the Less, we pride ourselves in our ability to meet the needs of all our students. We serve students from Kindergarten to 8th grade, made up by a diverse community of learners. It’s important that we recognize each student’s individual and unique gifts, and offer them the ability to achieve at their highest potential. Which is exactly why we are able to accommodate students for whom English is their second language. Through the use of our educational support assistants, small group instruction for academic remediation and advancement, our staff helps our students meet the challenges of the real world.

 Interested in enrolling your child?

Parents who are interested in enrolling their child at St. James the Less Catholic School should attend our Open House in February. During our annual Open House, we have families schedule a screening and shadowing day. This gives us an opportunity to see your child's academic strengths and for your child to see firsthand what our classroom environment looks like. For additional questions, please visit our registration page. Have a question about tuition and financial aid? No problem! Learn more about our offerings here. This school year (2023-2024), we have 457 students enrolled.

St. James the Less Catholic School admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs.

Here at St. James the Less, our top priority is the safety and welfare of your children—beginning with their arrival each morning and ending once we know they have been safely dismissed each day. To make this possible, we ask for your cooperation with our drop off and pick up policies, plus our dress code. Feel free to familiarize yourself with some of our guidelines below!
