Our Mission

Integrated Classical and Montessori Education for the Whole Person. We Instill wisdom and wonder to cultivate your child's natural curiosity and desire to learn.

St. James the Less Academy offers an integrated Catholic education with their parents by the model of Jesus Christ through a rigorous classical and liberal arts education and Montessori methods to cultivate the theological, intellectual, and moral virtues so they may persevere to meet their God-given potential to become mature, complete persons in service to the Church, their country, and society.

Why Us?

We are a small Catholic school focusing on individualized learning using classical curriculum models to form young children in character and virtue.

Unlike other schools preparing for standardized tests, our goal is to infuse our students with the wonders of classical education taught in a way that encourages curiosity, faith, and virtue and will serve as a foundation for a life of learning.

- Nancy J.

"As a mother of six young children with a background in education, I see first-hand the need for authentic, Christ-centered Catholic schools like SJL Academy. Those of us founding the school are already surrounded by people who love the Church, love our children, appreciate our families and understand best practices in education. We have an amazing opportunity to bring Catholic education to our community."
