Colds, Flu, Allergies and COVID |
|
We are seeing an increase in students coming to school with cold symptoms; runny noses, sore throats, coughing, sneezing, tiredness, etc. Though we are aware it is allergy season, and we are doing our best to identify those students who suffer from allergies, students should never be sent to school if they are not feeling well, or if they have symptoms of illness.
Allergy medication should be given prior to coming to school to have the best impact on your child. The school will not dispense allergy medication to students.
PLEASE REFER TO THE PARENT / STUDENT HANDBOOK for school policy regarding Student Illnesses. (pg. 8-10) See Handbook link at the bottom of this newsletter.
Though the indoor mask mandate has been lifted, COVID protocols for illness still apply. Please do not send your children to school if they are experiencing cold symptoms, if they are tired and not sleeping well, or if the runny nose is not clear or manageable for them in class. We will ask you to come pick them up.
Students who have symptoms of a cold must provide the school with a negative COVID test before they can return.

Message from the Principal |
|
Dear St. Rose Parents,
It is so lovely to have some exciting things to look forward to; Pizza Hot lunch started today, the upcoming Father Daughter Dance, Mother Son Bowling, the Walk-a-Thon and the celebration of our ninetieth anniversary as a school. With all the parent volunteers' currently working hard planning these events, I know they will be fantastic and fun activities.
As a result of the St. John's Junior High Dance being cancelled, we decided to have a Friday Fun Night for the Seventh and Eight Grades last Friday. It was great fun for the kids and staff, filled with pizza, drinks, a photo booth, video games, a volleyball competition, music, a raffle and piñata's.
After much thought, discussion, and prayer, Father Michaelraj and I have decided to restructure the Parent Association and Advisory Council to benefit the school further in the next school year. We greatly appreciate all the fabulous work our parent volunteers have done during these challenging times. We are thankful for all of you and look forward to the great events planned for our school community.
In light of this, we will not be having any Parent Association or Advisory Council meetings for the remainder of this school year.
We are excited to start the new year with fresh ideas and new parent participation as we continue our loving traditions and building upon the St. Rose Way.
God's Blessings to you all,
Kathleen Aymar
Principal

TRACK MEET VOLUNTEERS
The ONLY way St. Rose can participate in this event, is for parents to VOLUNTEER to be team coaches, AND volunteers to work an event the day of the Track Meet.
-
Each grade needs at least 2 coaches - 1 of each gender. Coaches must be able to attend and run practices and be in charge of your team the day of the track meet. Without coaches for each grade, that grade will not participate.
-
Track Meet Volunteers: All schools are assigned to work specific events the day of the meet. St. Rose will need 10-15 volunteers to facilitate our assignment. DOUBLE SERVICE HOURS!
Working this event is exciting and fun, and extremely rewarding to support all the kids who come out to run, jump and throw their way to smiles and ribbons.
All volunteers must be compliant with Diocese volunteer requirements and CDPH COVID guidelines for vaccinated / unvaccinated volunteers. (This information is on the volunteer sign up form)

ST. ROSE WALK-A-THON Monday, May 16th
All St. Rose Parents should have already received an email from 99pledges with your child's Walk-a-Thon pledge account information. Please use the link that was sent to you to donate, and send the link to family and friends. The Walk-a-Thon is one of St. Rose School's biggest fundraisers, but as we all know, COVID put a halt to our fundraising efforts the past 2 years. Though your child's pledge page will say their goal is to raise $100, that is not a mandatory amount. Anything you, your family and friends can donate is greatly appreciated.
If you have questions about your 99pledge account, please contact parent: Richie Smith at: epicplumbing707@gmail.com
Thank you for supporting St. Rose School.

VOLUNTEER VACCINATION STATUS
The CDPH issued a 'HEALTH ORDER' on 8/11/21, which requires all K-12 schools, public and private, to verify vaccination status of all workers. This health order is still in effect. Sonoma County also has a Health Order, C-19-38, issued on 3/14/22 which requires all K-12 public and private schools in Sonoma County to continue to comply with CDPH's Order for Vaccine Verification for workers, as well as any applicable Cal/OSH COVID-19 Emergency Standards.
The Health Order defines "worker" as all paid and unpaid adults serving in school settings, Workers include, but are not limited to, certified and classified staff, analogous staff working in private school settings, and volunteers who are on-site at a school campus supporting functions.
Workers who are not fully vaccinated, or for whom vaccine status is unknown or documentation is not provided, must be considered unvaccinated. Unvaccinated workers, in this case referring to volunteers, must provide a negative COVID test up to 24 hours prior to volunteering on our campus.
Parents who are fully vaccinated, if you have not already provided us with your vaccine documentation, please do so as soon as possible if you wish to volunteer. It will save us a step later in the process if we have the info on file. Those volunteers who decline to provide documentation or who have not received the full series of vaccination, will need to provide a negative COVID test result the day of any volunteer activity (up to 24 hours in advance).
