Dear Saint Rose Families,
Today I had the opportunity to attend a Toledo Symphony Concert with our 3rd grade. It was a special children's concert focused on voting and democracy. There was a celebration of American music, with a special vote by the students for their favorite composer. The votes were collected earlier in the week, and reported live during the concert. Aaron Copland, narrowly beat out Amy Beach and Duke Ellington. We were treated to Fanfare for the Common Man. The students had a great time. This point was to reinforce the importance of democracy and the right to vote. The students had a great time and hopefully came away a bit more informed and cultured. Throughout the year the different grade levels will have a chance to experience the visual contributions of the Toledo Museum of Art as each class has a visit scheduled around a particular theme linked to its curriculum.
We are blessed to have these formation experiences possible for our students. They are supported through the generosity of our donors. Our Annual Fund is financially doing well. We are nearly ready to secure our match of $35,000. When we do secure the match our students will be granted an alternate dress day. In terms of our participation rate, we are not doing as well. We announced a goal of 50 percent participation of our school families in either a prayer or a contribution, or both. We are currently at 16 percent. Please help us to reach our participation goal and earn an additional alternate dress day for our students by sending in your Annual Fund response as soon as possible.
Save the Date-Grades 6-8
Our annual ski trip is planned for
February 2. We will once again head to Mad River Mountain. The costs is projected to be $70, which includes transportation, skis/snowboard rental, helmet rental, a lesson and lunch. A registration form will be coming soon.
The Saint Rose Book Fair
Thank you to Mrs. Busse and all of her volunteers that helped to provide a successful book fair to our families. We raised $7,625 this year! I know that a lot of great books went home with happy kids. Thank you!
Patches
We feel confident that all families have had a chance to purchase their patches at this point. It is now officially a requirement of our dress code. Thank you for your cooperation and patience as we made this change. Additional patches are available in the office as you need them throughout the year.
Sincerely,
Dr. Bryon Borgelt
Principal

Year of Mercy
Corporal Work of Mercy:
Bury the Dead
Spiritual Work of Mercy:
Pray for the Living and the Dead
Family Homework for November
As the Church enters November, our focus is on the "end times." We acknowledge that we will die and that our goal is to be saints with God in Heaven for eternity. At our All Saints Day Mass
on Tuesday, Father Jeff gave the students an assignment for the month. He encouraged the children to speak with their parents and families about the saints--those holy men and women who persevered in the faith and are good Christian role models for all of us.
There are many resources about the saints. Perhaps your family could read about a different saint each day, either at breakfast or dinner or at prayer together at the end of the day.

November Charity: November's donations from alternate dress and Mass collections will be used to start a fund to help with burial expenses at the Saint Rose Cemetery for those with financial difficulties. Deacon Charlie McDaniel will work with the Student Council to organize and name the fund.
Update from October: Thank you for the generous support of the Jesuit Relief Services "Mercy in Motion" fund. Our donation totaled $307.71. In addition, the Oct. 12 collection of $930 was donated to Dr. Paat's relief work in Haiti after the recent hurricane.
