GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The school is fairly new so everything was in good shape. The only thing that was a bit of a pain was the fact that the choir room was the stage and the stage was right near the cafeteria so when choir class and lunch was going on at the same time, we couldn't hear in the class. Other than that, everything was great. It was very clean and well kept.

I work at the St. James Middle School and I see every day the caring staff working to make students better citizens and to excel in their school work. We do not falsely praise students to make them feel better, we encourage hard work and honesty.
