Kindergarten

During Catholic Schools Week, Kindergarteners worked with their 8th grade buddies to come up with ways we can shower Monsignor and Father Kyle with our prayers. They each wrote a prayer on a raindrop that we attached to umbrellas for them.  

Geography Bee

Congratulations to the twenty-eight students from grades 4-8 that competed in the annual Geo Bee at Saint Rose School. Eighth graders Henry Hartman and Giano Walkosky placed third and second, respectively, and seventh grader Bobby Namay took first place!

Thank you to the students and parents who collected supplies to send to troops stationed abroad through the All Saints' Show Them We Care Ministry. Donations included Rosaries, snacks and health items. Thank you to Monsignor Singler who blessed the items.

4th Grade

Fourth grade students are learning about the steps leading up to the American Revolution, including the taxes put on the colonies.

Students simulated this by having a group act as the British king, Parliament, and tax collectors. The rest of the students were colonists. M&Ms were used as currency, and the "colonists" had to pay whatever taxes Parliament and the king decided to implement. 

Alumni Spotlight

Jordan Sexton is a 2014 graduate of Saint Rose School. Jordan is currently a second year medical student at Lincoln Memorial University - DeBusk College of Osteopathic Medicine. She has enjoyed many of her classes at Lincoln Memorial, especially Physiology, Musculoskeletal and Respiratory. Jordan is particularly interested in Pediatrics and Sports Medicine. 

Jordan recalls many fun experiences at St. Rose, especially the daily 4 square tournaments during recess and playing tetherball with friends on the blacktop. She also thoroughly enjoyed the Teens High on Life week which she says, “Allowed students to learn about healthy living while having fun doing so.” Jordan is grateful for the advanced class offerings at St. Rose as she felt that they prepared her well for high school. She feels that her St. Rose School education showed her how to “work hard, believe in something greater than myself, and the importance of being a good person.” Jordan also believes that St. Rose instilled in her a confidence that she carried with her into high school at Notre Dame Academy, college at the University of Kentucky, and now in Osteopathic School. We look forward to following Jordan’s journey as she pursues her dream of becoming a Doctor of Osteopathy!
