Early Learning Center
A Premier Facility for Our Community
Construction of the St. James Early Learning Center (ELC) is our top priority. This state-of-the-art, 14,000-square-foot facility will cater to preschool-age students with dedicated classrooms for infants, toddlers, PK2, and PK3. The ELC will also feature a multisensory room, administrative offices, and a kitchen complex. A securely fenced playground will provide a safe and engaging outdoor space for the children.
But the ELC is not just for preschoolers. Thanks to the generosity of a donor, the building will include a second story designated as meeting space. This area will primarily host Saint J Youth events throughout the year, along with various other meetings as needed. Additionally, there will be ample storage space for items regularly used by both the church and the school.
