Dear Parents,
Teachers love this time of year because there are fewer distractions and they can accomplish a lot with their students academically. Mid-trimester progress reports go home today with your child. This is not a report card, but an indication of how your child is progressing so far.
Now that the busyness of the Christmas season is over, it is a great time to re-double your efforts in assisting your child with sight word and basic math fact practice at home. In addition, it is essential that students at every grade level spend time reading at home. A family practice that is guaranteed to make your child a better reader is to shut down the screen time for 20 - 30 minutes each night while everyone in the family engages in reading. Children of all ages benefit from listening to a fluent reader. Engaging in sustained silent reading is important as well. These activities occur every day in our classrooms. Continuing them at home is a very powerful educational tool and a great way to maximize the money you are spending on your child's education.
Winter is also an important time of year for recruiting new students. As you know, full enrollment results in smaller tuition increases. St. Rose parents continue to be our best ambassadors. If you know of a family who may be interested in joining us please encourage them to call the school and schedule a tour. Your children are also great recruiters and do a wonderful job of making potential students who visit experience
The St. Rose Way.

- All 1st - 8th families have received a laminated name placard to be used at dismissal. PLEASE be sure and USE your name placard when picking up after school. Placard should be placed in the right front window of your vehicle so our staff can easily & quickly identify & match up students with cars.
- If you have misplaced your placard - please contact Ms. Carol at [email protected] and she will make you another. Please keep it to use year after year.
PULL ALL THE WAY UP THROUGH THE CIRCLE: As vehicles move through the circle, please pull all the way up to the top to help up keep traffic flow moving. If your child is in tutorial, please pull to the side and park until 3:15 so the rest of traffic can keep flowing.

Parking Lot Safety
Safety First depends on your cooperation!
Please remember, and tell all those in your family who drive onto our campus, to please drive safely!
Some important safety reminders:
- Be patient. Drive slow. Be kind. Do not impede traffic flow or others.
- If your child goes to tutorial, do not get in the pick up line before 3:10 pm. Do not sit in the traffic circle waiting. Circle around back in line to keep traffic flow moving.
- DO NOT leave your car unattended in the traffic circle during drop off or pick up. Stay in your car and move as soon as your child gets in or out. If you have office business, please park in a designated parking spot.
- Morning drop off: everyone is in a hurry it seems to get to where they need to go. Please do not speed through campus. Do not pass unlawfully or unsafely. Be patient. Plan accordingly.
- If a staff member asks you to move your car or to park, they are doing what is in the best interests of everyone and to keep traffic moving. Please be respectful and do what they ask of you.
We thank you for your cooperation and appreciate your partnership in keeping everyone safe out there!
