Greetings from Dr. G
Sunny skies and sparkling smiles set the stage for our outstanding Open House last Sunday. Weeks of preparation culminated in a productive day of tours guided by our wonderful parent and student ambassadors and greetings by our dedicated teachers. The energy in our halls was palpable and recognized by the visiting families who gave positive feedback. In fact, several families have already registered for the 2024-2025 school year. Our family is growing! Sincere thanks to Mrs. Mok, Mrs. Moulder, our parent and student volunteers. And a special shout out to the students who spoke so eloquently at the Masses. Enrollment is now open to the public and the Bishop's Scholarship Fund opens February 1st (see below).
Middle School students completed their Midterm exams this week. They put forth great effort as did the teachers. Report cards will be emailed on February 5th. We are half-way through the school year and the momentum for learning and growing is strong. We are all on this faith focused, educational journey together with Jesus, the Good Shepherd, as our guide.
The week ahead promises to be exciting and emotional as we celebrate Catholic Schools, bid farewell to Monsignor Bob and welcome our new Pastor, Fr. Cipriani. There are so many blessings to count, so many prayers to offer, so many reasons to show our St. Rose School spirit. I look forward to sharing in all of these special activities and memorable moments with you. A schedule of events can be found below. If you have any questions please email Mrs. Sweeting, secretary@srles.com.

Congratulations to our boys and girls basketball teams who are having an incredible season! Our cheerleaders are a dynamic group who bring such joy to the home games. There are games this weekend so please come out and support our players if you can. Thanks to all of the parent volunteers!
Although I was away from campus for meetings Thursday and Friday, I stayed connected with the school. My thanks to Mrs. B for keeping things running smoothly.
Monsignor Bob will say his final parish Mass at 11:30 a.m. on Sunday (1/28) with a stop in reception to follow in the gathering hall. His final school Mass will be on January 31st at 9:00 a.m., please join us if you can. As I've often said, Monsignor may be leaving our halls but he will remain forever in our hearts. And the doors of St. Rose School will always be open to him, whose love and support has helped thousands of students BLOOM in mind, heart and soul through the years.
