The education of your child involves a cooperative effort between home and school.   Parents are urged to contribute suggestions and viewpoints concerning the educational needs of their child.   The most efficient means to carry out this privilege is to become active members in the Parent/Teacher Association.   Membership is open to all parents and guardians of students in the school and other people interested in Catholic Education.   PTA dues are included in your registration and re-registration fee.

All those interacting with the students are required by the Diocese of Trenton to undergo a criminal history check including Sagem Morpho fingerprinting process as well as attend a three hour Virtus training session.   Volunteers will be reimbursed for the fingerprinting expense.

You, the parents and students of Saint James Elementary School , are the heart and soul and spirit, which gives us a reason to be here.   Many parents and members of our parish community generously give of their time to our students.   There is a place in our school community for everyone.   Please contact the president of the PTA to discuss the type of assistance you would enjoy giving.   VOLUNTEERS ARE NEEDED.   For the safety of our students, all volunteers and visitors must wear designated badges when working in the school building.
