Communication & School Safety
Communication with parents is important. The weekly school newsletter is a great tool for parents to stay informed. And, as you now know, we use text messaging to keep parents updated with important reminders, as well as in the event of an emergency at school.
School Safety: The safety of everyone on our campus is paramount to us. Parent Volunteers must be compliant with Diocese requirements, and we all understand what 'stranger danger' means! Though you may feel comfortable being on campus, some of us may not know who you are. All visitors must come to the office and check in with us before coming on campus. We appreciate your cooperation.

Dear Parents,
I'd like to draw your attention to two important events coming this week - - our annual Walk-a-Thon on Friday and the first Sunday of the month 9:00 AM Mass at St. Rose Parish.
Friday is the Walk-a-thon. Besides being a healthy way to raise money, it is also great fun for all who participate - - students, teachers, and parents. This is one of the two major fundraisers of the year. The proceeds from this Parent Association event are used help us keep tuition more affordable for all families. As part of your tuition contract with the school you agreed to support our two major fundraisers. For this reason it is essential that every family participate by turning in a pledge form with at least one pledge
or use the online method of obtaining pledges. There are a number of fun rewards for your children if we get 100% participation. Pledges are due on Friday.
This Sunday is the first of our parish Mass celebrations. We are strongly encouraging all of our Catholic families to attend the 9:00 AM Mass on Sunday at St. Rose Parish. It is no secret that many Catholic families these days don't go to Mass very often. Fr. Denis and I have talked about this a lot, since the overall mission of a Catholic school is to pass on the Catholic faith to each new generation. This is not about Catholic guilt, we just want you to see what you are missing and how regular Mass attendance can add to your family life and your own individual faith life. St. Rose parishioners are lovely people who truly care about their parish school and support us in many ways. We'd love you all to get to know each other better. So we hope you will come with your children and, if you have time, enjoy the pancake breakfast afterwards. Students should express their pride in being a St. Rose student by wearing their dress uniform to the Mass.
Kathy Ryan
School Principal
