Volunteer Hours
All St. Raphael School families are required either to volunteer a minimum of 40 hours or pay a non-participation fee of $400. A decision regarding the Parent Volunteer Program must be made at the time of registration for the upcoming school year. The volunteer program is divided into three areas: on campus jobs, at home jobs, and fundraising activities. More specifically, the on campus jobs are divided into these areas: classroom, computer lab, library and special program aides; PTC, hospitality and room mothers; office aides and yard duty; health committee; hot lunch; and Saturday clean up crew. At home jobs include material preparation for classroom use, paper graders, phone calling, and typing.
St. Raphael School was founded when God answered a Daughter of Charity’s prayer. To this day, our mission is consistent with that of our founding Sisters: to educate all children in preschool through eighth grade in mind, body and spirit by imparting the values of Jesus through a rigorous curriculum, devoted faculty and an actively involved parent community.
