The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

St. James High School is an option to send your children to in St. James Parish. It is an average high school that will prepare you for college as much as a public school can.

This school offers many opportunities such as dual enrollment, STEM, and other higher level courses. The teachers and staff are extremely friendly and supportive throughout your time at SJH. Not only are the academics key, SJH has great sporting teams. For example, the football team was the 2019 State Champs. In conclusion, I would greatly recommend my school as a great public school option in Louisiana.
This is the best school ever.Everybody is cool and there are people who are messy .The teachers are determined to teach those who want to learn.The ones who don't wan to learn are brought to detention for the day.There are people that lead you in the right direction and the wrong direction.
