Back to School Information and Links
Dear St. Rose Families,

The first day of school is only a few weeks away and we know that you have begun to prepare for the new school year. Here are a few reminders and updates to help you with your to do list. If you have questions, not addressed here, please feel free to email me in the upcoming days. There will also be two more Back to School Student Life Updates before the first day.

Regarding Summer Work and Supply Lists; these are available on our website. You can click on the button below to go directly to that page. Please watch for a welcome letter from your teachers; they are excited to be getting the classrooms ready to start the year with their new classes; they will provide information for those first weeks regarding bringing supplies, snacks, and other class specific details.

If your child has had a recent physical, please make sure that our school nurse has the most recent copy of their health records. In addition to state mandates for school physicals; all students who wish to participate in athletic-based after school programs and any school sports teams must have an up-to-date physical on file.

Please note that the first days of school (Monday, August 29 (grades 5-8) and Wednesday, August 31 (grades K-4) are early dismissal days. There is no lunch time on those days, but please provide water and a healthy, hearty snack for the morning. Our kiddos will be hungry while getting back into the groove of a daily schedule and all the excitement of reconnecting with friends and meeting new classmates.

There is no school on Tuesday, August 30th as teachers of the Diocese will be gathering with the Bishop for the Welcome Back Convocation.

For the full days on Thursday, September 1 & Friday, September 2; students should again bring water and a snack for the morning; and also bring a lunch as there is no lunch service on those days.

A schedule for the first few weeks is included at the end of this update.

As we continue our way back to the "way we were" we return to the full dress code for boys and girls. This means that boys will return to wearing ties when we go to winter uniforms in mid October.

There is also an addition to the options for skirts/skorts/chino pants for girls in grades 5-8. We have added a Navy Blue choice, along with the standard Khaki choice. This is not a required change, but rather an additional choice being given after discussions with our young ladies in those grades. This option is now available when you visit our online Land's End Catalog Pages.

Don't forget our UNIFORM EXCHANGE when looking for uniform pieces. All uniform pieces are free to our families. Click on the Button below to get the REQUEST FORM, fill it out and email to uniforms@srles.com.

Finally, we would like to provide more information on the CLEAR BACKPACKS for our Middle Schoolers. Please Click the Button Below to Read More about the backpacks.

Our classrooms and hallways are buzzing with activity and we are excited to open our doors in a few weeks. In the meantime we hope you continue to make the most of the beautiful days God has blessed us with this summer break. We hope you find many opportunities to get outside and feel his love and goodness in the awe and wonder of the world that he wakes us up to each day.

Kind Regards,
Mrs. B
