What's Next
For 8th graders in the 2011-12 school year, take your time discerning the prestigious high schools in our area. Start by visiting High School Fairs at the parish most convenient for you (see the dates and locations listed above). The fairs include representatives from all three Johnson County Catholic High Schools; they are available to help families discern the high school options in this area.
Follow St. James Academy's Enrollment Timeline, mark your calendar to attend St. James Academy’s Open House and 8th grade sports nights. Come for a shadow visit and be prepared to ask your Student Ambassador a wide range of questions about being a student at St. James Academy, what they like and dislike, and how you can prepare for high school while you’re still in 8th grade.

There are a myriad of forms that are included in the admissions process. Thankfully most of this documentation is now processed on-line. Details are forwarded to all students who take the Placement Exam at St. James. For details, please contact the Office of Student Recruitment at (913)254-4228.
On Wednesday, April 18, 2012, another important event is held. The New Student Fair has become a tradition when incoming Freshmen get to meet teachers, coaches and sponsors. They can discuss auditions for placement in the fine arts department, pre-order uniforms, discuss the Christian Stewardship Project and pick up the Summer Reading Assignment. If a student tests at another school, or did not take a placement exam, but decides to apply for admission at St. James Academy, simply contact the school office for details, (913)254-4200.
