The Story
Saint Raphael School nurtures a Catholic faith, inspires academic excellence, and fosters a spirit of service to God and others. We affirm that Catholic education encompasses the whole human person: the spiritual, intellectual, cultural, psychological, physical and social aspects.
We believe the gospel message of Jesus develops a school community of love, peace, respect, and service to others.
Teachers, as catechists and mentors, inspire lifelong love of learning.
We believe parents are the primary educators of their children and that they unite with the school in an active partnership.
Saint Raphael School was established in 1889 as part of the Saint Raphael parish community. We have been matriculating student leaders since 1889, providing an excellent academic education, while emphasizing strong Catholic moral values.
We are a community steeped in Catholic tradition while dedicated to addressing intellectual, social and spiritual challenges. We celebrate diversity and inclusiveness in a warm and welcoming school community for students Preschool through 8th grade. Saint Raphael School welcomes students of all religious, ethnic backgrounds, race and color. We celebrate our differences and unite as friends and family.
