Education is more than just academics. It’s learning within a community that places strong value on teaching morals, values ,and being held to expectations that are set for all. This is why we are proud to send our child to St. James the Apostle.
Sara Zasada
Public High School Teacher
“As parents, we wanted a school where our children would be surrounded by faith, kindness, and a true sense of community — and we found that at St. James the Apostle School. From the very first day, we felt welcomed like family. The teachers and staff genuinely know and care for each child, encouraging them to grow academically, spiritually, and personally. At St. James, faith isn’t just something talked about — it’s lived out every day. Our children are learning to treat others with compassion, to serve others with joy, and to see God in everything they do. The small class sizes mean they receive personal attention, and the strong academic program prepares them for the future while keeping Christ at the center of their education. We are so thankful for the supportive community at St. James. Our children are thriving, confident, and happy to come to school each day — and as parents, that means everything.”

“As a teacher at Glenbard West, I can identify a St. James student from a mile away! They are respectful of their teachers, the staff, their peers and themselves; they are active participants in extra-curricular activities, but most importantly they are academically prepared the moment they enter our doors. St. James and the parents of our St. James alumni do an amazing job educating the whole person which is why my husband and I are sending our children to St. James.”

“St. James is a safe and loving community of families and teachers who value academic excellence. My children have learned leadership, integrity, faith and kindness. They look forward to each day and come home happy. I, myself, graduated from St. James and am grateful that my kids will get the same experience.”

“As a parent of St. James, I can’t say enough about the warm and welcoming community. One of the things I love is how involved the parents are. You can really tell that the families here prioritize their children’s education above everything else. The teachers are incredibly kind and truly are dedicated to their students. The teachers know every student extremely well and how best to support their learning. My kids love going to school everyday. St. James is a school that not only provides a strong academic foundation, but also nurtures a sense of belonging, faith, and teamwork.”
