St. James Lutheran School in Lincoln Park is a private, Christian elementary school serving pre-K through eighth grade students in the DePaul area. The school has a small population, with a general student enrollment of about 125. Pre-K is especially popular, with a student population almost as high as all other levels combined. The early-childhood program (preschool and kindergarten) has five classrooms and focuses on academics, social skills, guided play, religion and the arts. Additionally, the Mini Mavericks program provides free, bi-weekly play-and-learn sessions for infants to 4-year-olds. There are two sections for the rest of the classes: a first-to-fourth grade elementary division and a departmentalized, fifth-to-eighth grade middle school. This results in small class sizes with 95% of students accepted to their first choice of Chicago high schools. The academic philosophy at St. James Lutheran School centers on developing each child as a whole person through academics, faith, character and health. To realize that ideal, students of all levels participate in shows, athletics, service projects and field trips. As children expand their horizons, the opportunities increase in scope and complexity. For example, early-childhood program students might visit local farmers markets while middle schoolers take trips to Springfield. The result is an adventurous program that aims to instill a lifelong love of learning.

For us, the strong sense of community tops the list, but right there with it would have to be watching our kids run into the building every morning knowing that they feel safe, comfortable, and happy there... they feel at home. When we hear them say things like "I always want to go to St. James", it makes us feel, as parents, that we have made the best decision for our kids and our family.

St. James number one asset, by far, is the way in which the community of families show up to support the total organization (school & church). It's a 'home' where parents of current or future students, can expect an elite education, delivered by leaders (leadership, staff, & teachers) who truly care...

If you are looking for a school with excellent academics and a welcoming, supportive community, I highly recommend considering St. James for your family. We joined in 2020, during the pandemic, having never heard of the school before. Although St. James is not widely known, our experience has been t...

Great education along with a strong foundation in Christ's word has strongly prepared all of our children for high school and all the challenges they will face down the road. Wonderful community of families who support and celebrate with one another.
