It's ALLERGY SEASON!
The office is getting lots of visits from children suffering from seasonal allergies.
 As you can imagine, nothing is more distracting and miserable for a child who is in class suffering from itchy scratchy red eyes, runny nose and sneezing. To prevent us from calling you to pick up your child, and to keep  your child from suffering unnecessarily, please be sure they take allergy medication before coming to school in the morning. The school office can not dispense allergy medication to children.  Thank you!

A Note from Mrs. Ryan    
Dear Parents, 

St. Rose has always enjoyed a marvelous community spirit. I believe that many of you would list it among the top three things you love about St. Rose. During this difficult year, our community spirit has been stronger than ever. However, the situation that we had while we were down at the parish did not allow for parents to spend time on campus and many parents got in the habit of just staying in their cars and conducting most business through email. We have missed you and I think you have missed each other. Please know that you are welcome on campus and I am always happy to see you in the parking lot, on the playground in the mornings, and at the front counter in the office. I believe we need to be together, and our students benefit from seeing us together.
 
As you will see in today's newsletter, our Dads' Club has arranged for a lovely parents-only social event that will take place the evening of April 28 th. I hope you will consider attending. The Dads' Club is a valuable organization at St. Rose that gives dads the opportunity to network with each other, raise funds for pet projects, and build our community spirit. They are worthy of our support.
 
Perhaps your children have informed you that the framing for the reconstruction of the Kindergarten and 2 nd grade classrooms has begun. In addition, the shade structure is currently being installed for the play equipment in the fenced area and should be ready by the end of the week.
 
The new HVAC system that will include air conditioning for the main building will go forward this summer and will be ready for the fall heat waves that are certain to occur. Everyone is excited about this worthy project and you will soon receive more information on how you can be part of it all.
 
Have a lovely week!

Sincerely,
Kathy Ryan
School Principal
