On behalf of all of us at Saint James School, we wish to extend our sincere appreciation to the many friends of the school who participated in the Foundation’s golf tournament and dinner last week. With 128 people golfing and even more attending the dinner, Saint James School is extremely blessed to have such wonderful support from the greater Manchester community!
Just before dinner, Mr. Timothy Devanney, President of the Saint James School Foundation, awarded our school with a check for over $141,000, money that will be used for partial tuition assistance, technology, and margin of excellence programs for the 2015-2016 school year.
Thank you again to all the members of the Foundation for all they do to support Saint James School!

Pre-Kindergarten Open House
/in Uncategorized /by Saint James SchoolThe Saint James School Pre-Kindergarten will host an Open House on Thursday, June 4th, from 5:00pm – 7:00pm. Families exploring Preschool options for the 2015-2016 school year are encouraged to join us to learn more about our fully accredited, award winning program!
Saint James School’s Pre-Kindergarten program offers a unique experience for area children. Housed in a facility dedicated solely to serving young children, the program takes advantage of the many educational, cultural, and social activities of the adjacent Saint James Elementary and Middle School. Pre-K students attend drama productions, the annual art show, the Christmas concert, Christmas Store, and other activities at the “big school,” which they also visit to use the gym and library. Other resources from the adjoining Kindergarten-through-Grade-8 school, such as a full-time nurse, are also available to Saint James Pre-Kindergarten students.
As part of the fully-accredited, award-winning Saint James School community, the Saint James Pre-Kindergarten offers children of all faiths exceptional preparation for Kindergarten in a compassionate and nurturing Christian environment. Families may choose from a variety of programs, including full-day and half-day. Children enrolled in the full-day option may participate in the school’s extended day (before and after school care) program.
Families are asked to pre-register for the Open House HERE or by contacting the school at (860) 643-5088 (Option 2). Those unable to make the Open House are invited to call the school to schedule a tour or request an informational packet. The Saint James School Pre-Kindergarten is located at 85 Park Street, Manchester. More information about the various classes can be obtained by visiting our Pre-Kindergarten Programs page or downloading a copy of our brochure.
Saint James School infuses faith, values, compassion, and community with a traditional academic curriculum and accelerated learning environment. Students of all faiths and from all towns are welcome.
