St. James of the Valley School

[smurfera 0]

If you missed our Open House, be sure to call and schedule a private tour during the day as well as have your child shadow. Most of our students are from Greenhills and Springfield Township and are transported by WW bussing. Our school is minutes away from the Village of Greenhills in the heart of beautiful Wyoming. We have many families from OLR already attending and we are now part of a community parish region with OLR.

*We recently got news that Winton Woods (Grades 5 and 6) are now under Emergency status so these families would qualify for Ed Choice and be able to attend many of the area's private schools if accepted, St. James included but with prescreening.

Are you looking for a school with a strong family atmosphere? This gem of a school is very special because of its smaller size. Every teacher knows every child's name and all the children know one other.

We maintain high standards.

Our academic standards meet - and often exceed - state standards.

Our graduates have consistently done well on high school entrance exams, earning well over tens of thousands of dollars in scholarships every year and gaining entrance to their high school of choice in the Cincinnati area.

Grades 4-8 switch classes throughout the day for a variety of subjects.

Mrs. Jan McManus teaches a very strong English Writing curriculum for each child grades 4-8. Students have same teachers teaching same subjects grades 6-8 with Science, Math and Social Studies.

Come check the school out! Our numbers range from 15-25 students per classroom.

Our school is small, but filled with lots of wonderful staff and is a place where every child knows every one else!

Call Jim Haag, Principal, for a personal tour and schedule a shadow day for your child.
