St. James Intermediate School had a wonderful inaugural year!!
In August 2017 St. James Intermediate opened its doors to our first 5th and 6th grade students from the St. James attendance area of Horry County, South Carolina. SJIS is a state of the art building design that provides an visibly open school setting. This design allows for teachers to take learning beyond the walls, and outside their classrooms into open collaboration spaces. The school is outfitted with flexible furniture which can be easily moved for various learning structures. Interior classroom walls allow for viewing of students inside and outside of classrooms. The learning commons (media center) is the center, and focal point of our school. Through the use of our flexible space, and furniture we work to provide all students with world class skills and life and career characteristics of the Profile of the South Carolina Graduate by ensuring their successes in multiple ways.
Our first year has been an amazing journey as we settled more and more into our amazing building. Staff collaborated throughout the year in order to provide meaningful learning experiences for our students, and have already begun our plans to grow even more as a staff. We look forward to continuing with establishing school traditions with our supportive school community. Our focus is to continue our journey in providing an amazing educational experience for our students that prepares them for their futures.
We welcome you to visit our school website, or contact us if you would like to know more about St. James Intermediate School, and how we are transforming learning by taking learning beyond the walls.
