Philosophy

Saint James Catholic School provides formation for the whole child in the intellectual and moral virtues so that each student may contribute to the community as a disciple of Jesus Christ and enjoy eternal happiness with Him in heaven. Our faculty and staff recognize that parents are the primary educators of their children and seek to work with them to help each child develop lifelong habits of learning. We recognize and affirm the dignity of each human person, created in the image and likeness of God, with the capacity to know the truth, choose the good, and desire the beautiful. Our academic program is designed so that each student can progress toward their potential and develop their gifts. As a regional Catholic school of the Archdiocese of Louisville, we are faithful to all the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church.
