As the parent of a 7th grader, I know first-hand that Saint Raphael School supports middle school students academically, emotionally and socially throughout these difficult years when they become teenagers. They are provided with qualified, bright teachers who care about them. The challenging curriculum allows the students to deepen their analytical skills by having them solve increasingly more complex concepts. Equally as important, Saint Raphael School encourages every student to socialize embracing the words of Saint Catherine of Siena “Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on F.I.R.E.” Truly, each student at Saint Raphael School is valued both as an individual and for the contributions they make to the community as a whole. To me, Saint Raphael School offers the best of what is possible: A diverse, active student community that care for each other, strong academics, a commitment to both the arts and athletics and a lunch that the kids actually look forward to eating!
