Welcome to the St. James’ Episcopal School website!

For over forty years, St. James’ Episcopal School has been a leading elementary school in the heart of Los Angeles. We provide our students in Preschool through Grade Six with a solid educational foundation as well as a strong grounding in the Episcopal faith, a keen sense of community, and an eagerness to learn about and respect the world around them.

I hope that you find the information on this website interesting and informative. However, a website can never be a full substitute for an in-person visit, and I invite you to come to St. James’ School to hear the voices of our children, witness our teachers’ devotion to their work, and discover our passion for learning!

Mission Statement
St. James' Episcopal School, a ministry of St. James' Episcopal Church, serves students of diverse economic, ethnic, racial, and social backgrounds through an enriching program of academic rigor within a supportive Christian environment that emphasizes respect for all of God's creation and the value of service to others.

In addition to providing a solid academic base for further schooling and daily living, St. James’ Episcopal School strives to give students a sense of individual worth and dignity and to begin to direct their energies toward responsible service to others.

St. James’ Episcopal School affirms the basic purpose of an Episcopal day school:

To help each child understand that the knowledge and service of God lie at the heart of wisdom and to make faith in God the unifying force which relates each student and teacher to the church, the home, and the world. — National Association of Episcopal Schools
