St. James Catholic High School is a Grade 9 to 12 Catholic secondary school located in Guelph, Ontario is part of the Wellington Catholic District School Board.

[edit] History

St. James was created in the 1960's as a junior high school for Catholic students but became a full high school in the mid-1980's. When the original Bishop Macdonell Catholic High School closed down in the mid-1990's, St. James inherited many of Bishop Mac's students along with Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic High School leading to a quick rise in school population and the subsequent construction of a new wing. Today, with the completion of the new Bishop Macdonell Catholic High School, most of the students come from the eastern and some northern parts of Guelph as well as from Wellington County.

[edit] Dress Code

All students must wear a burgundy and grey tartan design for ties and skirts, black pants, and white dress shirts and polo shirts as part of a dress code.
