A Note from Mrs. Ryan
Dear Parents,

Thank you for your continuing support of our distance learning program. I am very proud of the St. Rose faculty and support staff for their continuing effort to deliver instruction via zoom while differentiating for each child’s unique situation. Many of you have asked about how St. Rose plans to make up for Covid-induced learning loss. This will be the focus of my brief presentation at the beginning of each grade-level Back to School Night.

We also know that there is concern among some families about the amount of screen time that is required of our students along with the stress and eyestrain that can happen. The teachers are also feeling the effects of long hours in front of the computer screen.  Please help us encourage your children to step away from the screen during their recess and lunch times. When air quality allows, it’s a great time for them to take a break outside.

Many of us have been triggered by the recent smoky skies and red flag warnings and we are aware that that our students may be struggling with these issues as well.  Keeping this in mind, please let us know if your child is unduly stressed.

Sincerely, 

Kathy Ryan
Principal

Who said zooming isn't FUN?!
Look at these happy Kindergarten students. Look closely and see if you can find Mrs. Haley.

Though students may be learning from home, we're doing all we can to operate as if students are here! Teachers can see the entire class on the Smart Board as if they are sitting in class, class work and art will be displayed on walls, classrooms are modified and set up for learning as if everyone was here. We will highlight classroom activity from time to time. Be sure and share with your students.
