Holy Rosary School
Dear School Families,
We have much to be thankful for and many times we can become distracted by the business of school and work and families and day-to-day responsibilities and much more. As the end of the school year approaches, let us be mindful of God's blessings in our lives. Take the time to slow down, take a deep breath, and just be and appreciate God's goodness in your life and the life of your children and families. Remember to keep one another in prayer and to keep our students in your prayers, most especially this coming week ...
* Our 2nd Grade students as they receive their First Holy Communion this Saturday;
* Our mothers, and those who are mother-figures to us, as we celebrate them on Mother's Day this Sunday; and
* Our 8th Grade students as they journey together as a class on their final Retreat at Silver Spur next week.
We have much to be thankful for ... God's goodness is all around us! Where did you see or experience His goodness this week?
Peace and blessings!
Celebrating Class Success in Math!

Dear School Families,
As an alumnus, former teacher, administrator and parent of Holy Rosary School, I love Holy Rosary and I want Holy Rosary School to be successful and flourish. After much thought and prayer, and through conversation with Fr. Roberto, I have decided not to return to Holy Rosary School next school year. I will pray for the new administrator and for the success of Holy Rosary School. I will continue to serve the school for the remainder of the school year and
I will work with Fr. Roberto, the school staff and the School Department at the Diocese during this transition period.
Thank you for all of the support you have given me during my time at Holy Rosary School.
Blessings,
Mr. Hooke

God Bless our 2nd Grade Students
Please continue to keep our 2nd Grade students in your prayers as they prepare to receive First Holy Communion this Saturday. Their teachers and parents have been guiding them and preparing them for this Sacrament during the course of this school year. We are proud to celebrate this most blessed and special occasion with them and their families!
My Communion Prayer
Dear God, I know that You give me many gifts.
The gift of Your Son, Jesus Christ in Holy Communion
is the greatest of all. How can I ever thank You
enough for this special gift?
At Mass we are called to be like Jesus, by loving and serving one another in the world.
As I become more like Him, please continue to
help me. Show me the places and ways that
I can bring Your love, kindness, and peace
to others....
in my family,
in my neighborhood,
in my community,
with my friends.
I ask this in Jesus' name. Amen.
|
Loving God,
As a mother gives life and nourishment to her children,
so you watch over your Church.
Bless these women, that they may be strengthened as Christian mothers.
Let the example of their faith and love shine forth.
Grant that we, their sons and daughters, may honor them always with a spirit of profound respect.
Grant this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

Dimalanta Family
Memorial Scholarship
Dear Holy Rosary Families,
We are so blessed to offer the Dimalanta Family Memorial Scholarship for the third year. This scholarship honors the legacy of my grandparents, Felipe and Brigida Dimalanta. Through their example, they instilled in their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren the importance of faith, family and education. It is with the sincere hope of continuing their legacy that we offer this scholarship to Holy Rosary students.
This scholarship is open to incoming fourth through seventh graders who are enrolled at Holy Rosary for the 2017-2018 school year. Applicants must have a cumulative GPA of 3.75 or better. There is no income requirement.
Submission details:
Minimum two pages single-spaced
Submit to Sheila Chou via email
Deadline: Wednesday, May 24
Select one of the following topics.
ESSAY TOPIC 1:
Some of the most memorable moments in life are connected to family.
Please share the most memorable moment you have experienced with your family. What made it special? How did it impact you? How does it reflect your family values?
Please remember that memorable moments can be large events or small, everyday occurrences. Sometimes the most meaningful experiences are simple and easy to overlook.
ESSAY TOPIC 2:
What is the strongest belief that you have? What specific events in your life led you to this belief? What positions directly conflict with this belief, and have you ever tried to see things from other peoples' perspectives?
Does seeing things from other peoples' perspectives weaken your strongly-held belief in any way? Does it make your belief stronger?
Why are beliefs important, and do you think they should ever change?
