St. James School vs. St. Mary St.. Joseph School

St. James School offers a variety of educational programs combined with Catholic doctrine and values.

Our program begins with a flexible pre-school programs and extends to the middle school block-schedule format.

Curriculum is enhanced with religious education, physical education, music, art, computer, and Spanish All combine to provide a solid value based educational program.

St. James School, a Catholic, Christian community, sees its primary focus of education to be holistic in nature.

In addition to its promotion of academic excellence, we at St. James believe in the power of Catholic education to transform the lives of its students, and in its ability to empower those students to be ever present signs in our world today that God is truly with us, as we strive to integrate the spiritual with the academic, social and emotional well-being of each student.

First and foremost in our goals is the development and nurturance of each child's gift of faith.

Through meaningful celebrations of the sacraments, and a conscious effort at inculcating the principles of our Catholic faith, we encourage our students to choose wisely in their dealings with themselves and others, and to share willingly their beliefs both in and out of the school environment, and to believe strongly in the power of prayer, a constant thread woven throughout the entire school day.

St. Mary - St. Joseph School educates in an atmosphere of love and respect for “J.O.Y.” (Jesus, others, yourself).

As a bi-parochial Catholic school, we challenge our students to develop their God-given talents and intellect.

Through His Word and by our daily example, we nourish their spiritual growth.

We are committed to providing students in grades pre-K through eight from Windham and the surrounding towns with a challenging academic program emphasizing Gospel values.

We teach so that students will meet the future with a firm foundation of knowledge, skills and faith.

As educators of the Catholic faith we strive to teach Gospel values, pray with the students, and serve as models of responsible caring adults of faith.

Understanding that education is a life-long process, we strive to instill in students the specific skills and self-discipline necessary to achieve academic success now and in the future.

Realizing that our students are the leaders of tomorrow, we celebrate the uniqueness of each child, and we hold as our sacred mission to help each child develop his or her own God-given talents and gifts.
