Happy second semester,
We have passed the midpoint of the 2021-2022 school year. I hope all staff, students, and families had a great break and find themselves ready to finish the school year strong. The second semester can be exciting in the school world. We progress towards spring with graduation, the next grade level, and the next chapter of our lives. Let us not forget we move toward warm weather as well! However, we will most likely encounter a few winter weather storms between now and then.
I wanted to remind everyone that if we have to cancel school, the announcement will be sent out via the district all-call system, text message, and email to parents. In addition, it will also be made available on district social media, the website, and St James R-I will also use the following outlets listed in the picture.
Sincerely,
Tim Webster
Superintendent of Schools

Good afternoon,
The administration at St. James High School became aware of rumors circulating in the building regarding a social media threat of school violence. We immediately began investigating and have determined this is not substantiated as a credible threat. Please know that the safety of our students and staff is always a top priority for us.
The social media (Tik-Tok) threat was determined universal for all schools, encouraging students to partake in violence on Friday, December 17th. This was not a threat made towards St. James Schools or by any St. James student. At no time were students or staff in any harm.
Our administration has confirmed that several copycat threats are circulating nationwide due to the Michigan school tragedy. This can cause an upheaval in talk of incidents and cause anxiety with students. Our district always takes any threat of violence seriously and works with our local police department. We will continue to stay in communication with them over the next few days to help ease any anxiety created by this type of situation and ensure the safety of students and staff. Everyone at St. James Schools is safe, and we are continuing to focus on teaching and learning today as we finish strong before Christmas Break.

They meet their goal and also were surprised with a $250.00 donation from the St. James Middle School Boys Basketball team. Thank you to everyone who donated to make this drive so successful- special thanks to St. James PTCO for donating the gift cards for raffle prizes!
