Schools in Solana Beach, CA

“My wife and I recently registered our son for the Fall 2023 School Year at Santa Fe Christian for 1st grade and I must say the administration really went out of their way to make us feel so welcome and part of the SFC family. Every interaction has been first class, from the admissions staff, lower and upper school teachers, coaches and head of school, we are beyond excited for our son to start his academic journey here!!!”

“St. James Academy is a fantastic school. We moved from Portland, OR four years ago and toured 8 schools in the area. We chose St. James Academy and have been happy every day since! Our children continue to thrive in the nurturing environment that SJA provides. The academics are outstanding. Faith and love fill the school. The Fine Arts, Performing Arts, Athletics, Foreign Language, and Leadership Program have been awarded in the community and are amazing. We have won the CA Green Ribbon Award three years in a row and this year we were recognized and awarded nationally. There is an outdoor classroom nestled in an indigenous garden along with a Monarch Butterfly sanctuary. There is an all school mass weekly that each class leads where the Jr. High students sit with the Kindergarten-second grade students acting as mentors/role models. We have an amazing athletics program with two phenomenal coaches that instill teamwork, communication, health, and fun into every class. We offer sports teams K-8. Our preforming arts program is stellar with our students being invited and having the privilege of singing at Carnegie Hall yearly. Art is taught in every grade with an hour and a half elective for the Jr. High. They have won Best in Show at the San Diego Fair two years in a row. Spanish is offered starting in Preschool through eighth grade.The spirit on campus is electric! The students exude confidence and kindness. St. James Academy is one of a kind.”
