At St. James, we believe learning is most effective when
students find value in what they are doing. Although they may not
at first fully understand the long-range importance of their
learning, children are initially attracted to be involved, to be
invested and to inquire about some stimulus. This is how God made
us to be.Our faculty recognize this need in their students to be
involved in their learning and invest themselves into the inquiry
and problem solving process. We seek to develop an atmosphere for
learning, a culture where this happens naturally, every day in
every aspect of the students' learning process.
