St. Raymond's Elementary School is a Catholic school committed to carrying on the Mission of Christ, which is bringing the message of Love and the Gospel to all people.
We invite our students to grow toward maturity in our Catholic faith, intellectual capability, and personal integrity.
The children in our care ask of our school what the psalmist asks of God, Teach me goodness and discipline and knowledge. At St. Raymond's we are committed to responding with love and care to this request.

Do you have a list of teachers at St. Raymond's from the 1950's? I'm trying to remember my teachers' names in first through fourth grades 1950-1954, approximately. Thanks if you can help with a roster. Boys and girls mixed together in those grades, then. I had nuns for first and fourth, lay teachers for second and third. My name is Nugent, Susan.
