Raider Cafe is a student run business that promotes inclusion. Students taking this class learn valuable work skills such as customer service, responsibility, teamwork, work ethic, money skills, advertising, and interpersonal skills.

Students may sign into the space during their study hall. The cafe promotes a coffee shop atmosphere with high top seating, specialized lighting, charging stations, and a TV.

Raider Cafe opens everyday at 7:30 and is open all day except 5th hour (lunch).

Coffee sold through Raider Cafe is from Alakef in Duluth, MN. Alakef created a signature “Raider Blend” just for Raider Cafe. Alakef roasts their coffees to order and ships the same day, so the coffee is as fresh as possible. Alakef supports fair trade, sustainable agriculture, and farm management techniques that protect the environment in order to provide high quality coffees. Raider Cafe also sells pastries, freshly baked cookies, 100% fruit slushies, and other snacks.

Profits from the coffee business will award scholarships to students with an Individualized Education Plan or students pursuing a career field working in the social sciences field.
