St. James High School is holding a TV raffle which will include every high school household that completes an Application for Free and Reduced Lunch for their student. Households that complete a F/R Lunch Application will have their name entered into the drawing. A student/household does not need to be eligible for the F/R lunch to win the TV from the raffle, but rather they have to have a completed F/R Lunch Application. If a household has already completed an application, they do not have to complete another one to be eligible for the drawing.
Use the QR code to access the F/R Lunch Application. To be considered for the TV Raffle all F/R Lunch Applications must be completed by Wednesday, October 30th.


Ella Philyaw was nominated for the Army Value Leadership Award for RESPECT. The nominating teacher chose Ella because: "Ella is kind and respectful to everyone she encounters. She treats everyone like they matter, she does this by taking the time to speak, even if it's something as simple as "good morning". Ella always makes great eye contact and pays attention in class. She's an excellent example to her peers."


We appreciate our ongoing partnership with the Phelps County Sheriff's Department, Corporal EJ Scheel, and his canine, Hondo in helping keep St. James High School safe and drug-free. Thank you for supporting our commitment to providing a healthy, safe learning environment for all students!


Staff Shoutout for Coach Wells
