Dear School Families,  

As we begin the Easter season, we pray that our Risen Jesus bless us with the grace of a new appreciation of the Resurrection so that we may inspire hope.  

There is so much to be hopeful for.  Our faculty and staff are dedicated to creating the learning environment that promote high academic achievement for all our students.   The Parent Teacher Guild (PTG) and School Board are actively working to provide events that bring us together in community.  We are blessed that we have Father Roberto, Father Bart and Deacon Charlie who continue to provide our students with their faith formation weekly.   I am hopeful that you experience the faith, hope and love Holy Rosary offers everyday. 
 
We invite you to join us for mass Friday morning at 8:30 a.m.  After mass we will announce students who earned Honor Roll and Principal Honors for the 2nd Trimester.  We are proud of all students.  

In Partnership,

Fely Fajardo
Principal

Parents & Our Catholic Identity


My faith brings joy to my life because at my core, I am always hopeful. I may worry, or doubt myself sometimes, but the truth is that somewhere deep inside I always know it will be alright because God has a plan. I don't always see it, but a part of me always has hope, because I know God is with me and will see me through anything.
