Saint Raphael School will host a specially scheduled Storytime, led by students from the Leaders for Readers program, at Barnes & Noble Corte Madera on Wednesday, December 11th at 1pm.  All are invited to attend this free event.

Leaders for Readers & Book Club is a student-driven reading program designed to increase younger students’ reading ability, while building self esteem and leadership qualities in older students. 6th, 7th, and 8th grade Leaders volunteer their time after school to share their skills and love of reading with 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th graders. Students take ownership and pride in this program that instills a love of reading and a philosophy of service. Today, over half of the student body of Saint Raphael School is involved in the program.
