St. James High School provides many great teachers and opportunities to grow and be part of the school. The food is average and chances of fitting into the school are really good.

Teachers do not care if you learn or not. We are not getting prepared for the real world. There are some teachers who work extremely hard to make a difference but the school board and the superintendent don't like change.

Kids have brought guns and drugs to school multiple of times through out the years. I do not feel safe knowing that the kid behind me is caring a gun. No one is really doing anything about this serious problem. I don't feel safe walking the halls with possible serial killers. The nurse believes that an ice pack is going to solve any medical that you have and it is ridiculous!
