Dear School Families,
Thank you to all our school families who attended 4th Sunday mass and joined us for the Holy Hotcakes Breakfast. The boutique raffles were a hit and the vendors were busy. We saw many families come through the Junior High Open House. Continue to share the good news of Holy Rosary School. Our future depends on you.
Tomorrow, our students will be participating in Faith Families learning the Catholic Social Teaching: The life and dignity of the human person. As Catholics, we are called to show respect and acceptance for those persons who are different from us. We are called to solve problems without fighting. We should care about each other. We are challenging our students to see beyond their own families to the needs of others, to be like Jesus, and to love one another.
Our school mission statement in part
calls us to be
"in partnership with our families, that we are a faith community which shares its love of God ... We guide students to an understanding of who they are and an appreciation for what they can contribute to the world."
Teaching respect and acceptance begins at home. The media is saturated with negative behaviors and indifference that our children are exposed to on a daily basis. We encourage you to have conversations with your children every day and remind them to be kind, to be respectful, and to show that they have a responsibility to care about others.
In Partnership
Mrs. Fely Fajardo
Interim Principal
Parents as Partners
Students who are involved in extracurricular activities, from soccer to basketball to choir to dance, tend to have higher self-esteem and stronger connections to school. But an overloaded schedule with too many activities can have the opposite effect, leaving kids and parents stressed out.
"So Many Activities so Little Time
" offers families strategies to support their child's extracurricular activities while ensuring they're manageable. English Espanol
