Why SS Philip and James Catholic School?

A Foundation of Excellence

SS. Philip and James School (SPJ) offers an education that empowers students to reach their full potential. Our mission is to help students believe in God and themselves, to care about their neighbors and the world, and to excel as students and citizens of this world and His Kingdom. We are committed to a classical Catholic education where faith and knowledge meet excellence.

Academic Excellence in a Nurturing Environment

At SPJ, we believe in providing a strong academic foundation in a supportive and caring environment. With a low student-to-teacher ratio of 10:1, our dedicated educators provide individualized attention to help each student thrive. We are proud to be recognized as a "School of Distinguished Instruction" for our students' consistent growth and high achievement on the Terra Nova Standardized Tests.

A Caring and Close-Knit Community

Our school is more than just a place of learning; it is a community. We foster a close-knit, family-like atmosphere where every student is known and valued. We partner with parents to create a supportive network that nurtures each child's intellectual, spiritual, and emotional growth.

SPJ is dedicated to the holistic development of our students. We offer a variety of extracurricular activities, including CYO sports, to help students explore their interests and talents outside the classroom. We also offer practical support for families, including busing and an extended-day program.
