Her name is Ms. A. Hernandez. She is the best teacher, but I have 2 more teachers I love, Mrs. Marin and Ms. C. Hernandez, and that why you should come to St. James. Both of my teachers are the best.

"I love this school and here is why. My teachers are very supportive and positive, not only because that’s their job but because they deeply care about us as their children. Our school is blessed to be able to play sports especially during a pandemic. Being able to play sports is a privilege, because not everyone can play sports right now. It’s definitely a blessing because we can practice and play safely. Being in a pandemic doesn’t stop us from doing the things we love and doing the things we do every year. We may have to do them differently but that doesn’t stop us from doing it. Our school will always figure out ways to do stuff for us safely. Those are the reasons why I love my school and why I’m safe and lucky to be able to come to this school." - Liliana

We get to do fun activities, have games to go to, and have pep rally’s, but we do it because it’s fun and we care. St. James is a fun school to go to. Before I went to public school and I never wanted to come, but the kids here make you feel welcomed, and ever since I've been here I loved it. Sure you're gonna miss your old school, but this is a special school and the kids here will make you feel like you belong.

Throughout the years I’ve had many great teachers and made lasting friendships. I love our campus and all the fun days that we have together. I love our classes and we have the best sports program ever! What I love the most about my school is that we are Salesian. I will be Salesian forever in my heart!" - Gabriella

"I love my school, because they teach us about God, we have sports, and great teachers. They make us grow spiritually stronger when they take us to Mass. We also have one class just for religion which is where they break it down for us, and show us the true meaning of Catholicism. They also give us the option to play sports. This gives everyone the chance to make the team, and to be able to triumph with friends when you win a game. At our school we have some amazing teachers. They break down all of their lessons, and explain them perfectly to us. My school allows me to have a great time, because they teach us about God, we have sports, and great teachers." - Aiden
