Celebrating LWJE’s Students of the Month! 🐾📚🌟
The Student of the Month tradition is back at Lucy Wortham James Elementary, and our Tigers are already off to a strong start. Each month, a different character trait takes center stage, and teachers look for students who bring that word to life in their classrooms.
September’s trait was POSITIVE ATTITUDE, and our students showed us just how powerful a smile, determination, and optimism can be. From small acts of encouragement to tackling challenges with a can-do spirit, positivity was shining all across LWJE.
At the end of the month, each teacher chose one student who stood out for embracing this trait. Together, these Tigers represent our September Students of the Month!

Creative Writing Meets Picture Books! ❤️🐯🤍
St. James High School creative writing students spent time in the library diving into the world of children’s literature! They explored picture books, learned how short-form writing can tell big stories, and are now preparing to create their very own short picture books! #academicexcellence #stjschools #tigerpride

Cadets Leading the Way at LWJE! ❤️🐯🤍
High school cadets spend time at Lucy Wortham James Elementary each day, joining in wherever they’re needed and helping our youngest learners feel supported and confident. That care and responsibility is a real example of Social Integrity. #PortraitOfAGraduate #stjschools #tigerpride

All Roads Lead Forward with Reading! ❤️🐯📚
Students across all three of our schools have the opportunity to participate in the Missouri Association of School Librarians reading programs this year!
📕At Lucy Wortham James Elementary School, students are exploring the Mark Twain Reader Award Nominees.
📗At the St. James Middle School, they’re reading the Truman Award Nominees.
📘At the St. James R-1 High School, readers are engaging with the Gateway Award Nominees.
Each building celebrates student success through a Reader’s Wall of Fame, and students earn a spot by reading at least 4 of the 12 books. At the end of the year, they’ll honor all of our amazing readers with a celebration!
Libraries play an important role in this journey. Strong literacy skills help students build confidence, open doors to opportunity, and ensure that all roads truly do lead forward! #academicexcellence #stjschools #tigerpride

Student Council Leads the Way at Lucy Wortham James Elementary! ❤️🐯🤍
LWJE Student Council is putting Engaged Citizenship into action by leading recycling efforts and helping their school stay organized, including tidying up the Lucy Libraries.

These experiences remind students that their actions matter now and in the future. #EngagedCitizenship #stjschools #tigerpride
