Saint Raphael School is committed to quality education, discipline, and christian values, in an atmosphere of mutual respect, support and cooperation.
The religious education program of our school is the center from which all other programs get their beginning, for any Catholic school exists primarily for the religious development of its students in an atmosphere of a faith community.
The students are encouraged to be mindful and caring for the poor, both locally and world wide, through Mission activities and a food pantry.
