REGISTRATION FORMS & INFO

Welcome to the Official website of St. James School.

St James Regional School Welcome to the St. James School website. St. James serves the educational, spiritual, and social needs of 400 students in grades pre-k through eight and is part of the Diocese of Bridgeport. Our home is located just next to Academy Hill in the heart of the beautful historic district of Stratford, Connecticut.

Our website has been created to help our friends learn about the wonderful faith and learning community that is St. James. In these pages we hope to help students and parents keep abreast of school events. Please note that, in order to better serve our community, we are in the process of a complete site renovation. With the help of parent volunteers and our Technology Coordinator, we hope to repair all issues and provide a more streamlined and functional website for our use. In the interim, please be patient and accept our apologies for any information that is not up to date as of this time. We are very grateful to the many hands that help keep the good news at St. James on the web for everyone to access!

Why Catholic Education?

If you have ever questioned the value of a Catholic education today, we invite you to visit the Diocese of Bridgeport's website (or click on the title below) to read a letter from Dr. Matthew Kenney, former Principal of St. Joseph High School in Trumbull, CT and Executive Assistant to the President and Interim Director of Campus Ministry at Sacred Heart University. Dr. Kenney's letter is titled "Ten Reasons Why Catholic Education Still Matters." It speaks pointedly to our mission as Catholic educators.
