The St. James School District No. 7 was established in July 1871. It operated schools in what would later become the Winnipeg suburb of St. James until it became part of the St. James-Assiniboia School Division No. 2 in 1969.

Built during the summer of 1907 using architectural plans drawn by Pall Melsted “Paul” Clemens, St. James School was a two-storey wood frame building on a concrete foundation. It had four classrooms along with a basement which served as an indoor play area during cold or wet weather. It was completed at a cost of around $10,000. Its exterior had white walls and a dark-coloured roof. Within a few years, tents were needed to reduce classroom overcrowding.

As the local population grew, so did the need for classroom space. In late 1913, the district hired Winnipeg architect Alexander Melville to design a new and much larger building. The project was managed by the Frid-Lewis Company and work began before the year’s end. Its distinctive red brick and limestone exterior featured entrances on the west side labeled “Boys” and “Girls.” It was completed at a cost $175,000 and opened at a ceremony on 25 November 1914 attended by Education Minister George Robson Coldwell and Deputy Minister Robert Fletcher.

On 16 June 1947, an honour roll commemorating students who were killed during military service in the Second World War was unveiled by Miss Margaret Pildrem whose brother Robert was named on it.

Elementary classes were initially held on the main floor and high school classes were on the second floor, until the opening of St. James Collegiate in the early 1950s, when higher grades relocated there. An auditorium addition was designed by the architectural firm of Smith Carter Searle and Associates and built in 1961.

The school’s alumni includes the city’s first female mayor Susan Thompson, bandleader Jimmy King, Liberal Cabinet Minister Mitchell Sharp, speed skater Gordon Audley, provincial premier Greg Selinger, and National Defense Headquarters Chief of Air Staff Ken Pennie.
