Saint Raphael School

🎡🎉 What a fantastic way to celebrate the end of another wonderful school year!

This weekend, the St. Raphael Parish School and Parish communities came together for our annual End-of-Year Carnival. Students, families, parishioners, alumni, and friends enjoyed an afternoon filled with fun, laughter, and community spirit.

From the dunk tank, bouncy houses, petting zoo, games, face painting, and Davey the Clown to delicious burgers, cotton candy, and popcorn, there was something for everyone to enjoy. It was wonderful to see our entire school community—from our youngest learners to our graduating students—celebrating together.

Thank you to everyone who attended, volunteered, and helped make this year's carnival such a memorable event. We are grateful for the strong community that makes St. Raphael Parish School such a special place.

And through it all…..

The St. Raphael Class of 2026 grew in faith, friendship, and character – learning, laughing, adapting, and making memories together every step of the way.

We miss you already and we can’t wait to see the amazing things you’ll accomplish.

Congratulations, Class of 2026!

🐾🦁 On May 29, our Kindergarteners enjoyed an exciting field trip to Stone Zoo!

Students spent the day exploring exhibits, learning about animals from around the world, and seeing wildlife up close. Every stop offered a chance to make new discoveries and bring classroom lessons to life.

A special thank you to Stone Zoo, as well as our teachers, staff, and parent volunteers, for making this memorable day possible.

Enjoy these highlights from our wild adventure!

As our Class of 2026 prepares to graduate, they are also passing along some important St. Raphael’s traditions to the next generation of student leaders.

This week, our 8th Grade Flag Crew officially handed over their responsibilities of raising and lowering the American flag each day to next year’s crew. Likewise, our student leaders for daily prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance passed these important duties on to the students who will carry on these traditions in the coming school year.

We are grateful to our graduating students for the leadership, dedication, and school spirit they have demonstrated throughout the year, and we look forward to seeing our incoming student leaders continue these cherished traditions in the year ahead.

This week, our students brought the world to St. Raphael Parish School during our annual 6th Grade International Night!

After weeks of research and preparation, our 6th graders proudly showcased this year's featured countries: Japan, China, Canada, Australia, Italy, Vatican City, Ireland, Brazil, Spain, Morocco, France, Greece, and Switzerland. Their projects explored each nation's geography, culture, economy, cuisine, wildlife, and more.

Families traveled from country to country as students shared the sights, sounds, and tastes of their chosen destinations, many while dressed in authentic cultural attire.

We are incredibly proud of our 6th graders for their hard work, creativity, and presentation skills. Thank you to our students, families, and teachers for making this annual tradition such a success!
