GREAT Things Happen When We Work Together! ❤️🐯🤍
Building #CaringRelationships and fostering teamwork are key parts of our mission at St. James R-1. Mrs. Mulhall's classes at St. James Middle School have been busy with exciting activities like building paper towers, participating in blindfold hunts, and designing paper bridges. These creative challenges help students develop essential skills in teamwork and collaboration. Great things are happening at St. James Middle School! #GreatThingsHappenHere #stjschools #tigerpride










Learning Highlight: LWJE Library Adventures! 📚🐯❤️
4th grade students started their library visits with an exciting day of discovery! They explored the Mark Twain Readers Award Nominees, watched captivating book trailers, and discussed the Reader's Wall Challenge. The best part? They began their reading journeys by checking out some great books!

Tigers Recycle for a Better Tomorrow! ♻️🐯🌎
The National Honor Society (NHS) at St. James High School kicked off its annual recycling initiative today! Each week, NHS members collect recyclables from every classroom and building area, sort them, and ensure they are properly recycled. This effort not only helps keep our school clean but also empowers our students to be responsible stewards of the world. Together, we’re making a difference, one recycled item at a time!
Let’s continue to inspire our Tigers to lead with care and positively impact the world around us! #MissionMakers #GreatThingsHappenHere #stjschools

Community Pride in Action! 🤝
A big shoutout to a few of our community supporters, Danny Craft, Randy Craft, and Hadden Lewis, for their dedication and generosity. Thanks to their hard work, the "STJ" near our football field is freshly repainted, reflecting our #TigerPride.
This is what community partnerships are all about—empowering our students and making GREAT things happen here! ❤️🐯🤍 #stjschools



🌟 GREAT Things Happen Here! 🌟
In Mrs. Witt's class today, students explored the importance of understanding and meeting each other's unique needs. Through a creative lesson, each student received an "injury" and a bandaid—but only one bandaid was placed correctly. This activity highlighted that the same support doesn't work for everyone, emphasizing that each student benefits from support that fits their individual needs.
By fostering caring relationships, we empower our students to thrive academically and within our Tiger Community. Together, we're making GREAT things happen at St. James R-1 School District! #GREATThingsHappenHere #stjschools #tigerpride
