Dear St. Raphael School Families and Friends, 

Sometimes I am asked, “Why do we need to do fundraising?” The graph below will answer this question and will also give you deeper insight on the importance of our three major fundraisers. We strive to keep tuition affordable for anyone that would like to give the gift of a Catholic education to their children, as well as continue our extra programs that make St. Raphael School such a special place.

With that being said, we are excited about our upcoming auction!  Don’t forget to sell those raffle tickets, purchase your event tickets (you don’t want to miss this one), and get ready to have a fun night!   The auction is on Saturday, February 25th at the Santa Barbara Carriage Museum.  Purchase your tickets here!

Registration for the 2022-2023 school year is March 13-21.  The Catholic Education Foundation Tuition Assistance applications are now available.  You can download the forms from the e-newsletter or pick up a copy in the office.  Applications are due no later than March 18th.  Late applications will not be accepted.

Important Dates:

February 14: Jeans for Jesus Valentine Style 

February 22: Ash Wednesday. School Mass at 10:45 am

February 25: School Auction

In Mary’s Love,

Ms. Michelle Limb, Principal 

The Lord bless you and keep you! The Lord let His face shine upon you and be gracious to you! The Lord look upon you kindly and give you peace. Number 6:24-26
