SAINT JAMES SCHOOL completed its 30th year in 2022-23 and our rich history of Catholic schools that became Saint James School spans over a century! Saint James School is fully licensed through the State of Maine and fully accredited through New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC).

We have rolling admissions for the 23-24 school year!

The St. James School PFTA-Parents, Friends & Teachers Association raises the funds needed for the operation and management of the school. Last year over $25,000 was raised for St. James School! Information for ongoing events is sent home via the students and may be found on the calendar of both this and the parish's websites.

St James School PFTA usually meets the second Wednesday of every other month at 6:00 p.m. You are all members of the PFTA and welcome to attend any meeting.

Your classroom representative will keep you informed of what happens at the PFTA meetings and send the minutes to you. They will also alert you of what the needs might be. Please go to them with any questions. Here is a list of the classroom representatives-
