First graders studied Presidents and First Ladies in U.S. history, writing/reciting reports and marching in the Presidents and First Ladies parade through the school halls while faculty and students from other grades waved American flags and cheered them along. Learning key facts about these important figures in U.S. history inspired the First graders and set the tone for a meaningful President's Day.

Is blinking a voluntary or involuntary muscle? How many bones make up a human skeleton, and what are the measurements? Seventh grade students made many discoveries in the school's state of the art science lab where they conducted a muscle lab and measured skeleton bones. Every student named and designed a skeleton for a contest that was judged by other classes in the school. Hands on learning opportunities make a lasting impression.

St. Rose School is like a second family and it is at these types of events that the bonds of long lasting friendships begin. We have a rich history and a bright future, offering a stellar academic, faith focused education that helps children BLOOM in mind, heart and soul.

Our first and fifth grades collected baskets, eggs, and Easter treats to assemble baskets and Easter goody bags. After all the Easter baskets and bags were lovingly assembled, the classes took a walk over to the church and then continued on to Faith Food Pantry where they donated the baskets and bags. The service project brought fun, together time for the buddies, and put a smile on everyone's face knowing that they were going to bring joy to children and families on Easter Day!

Promoting peace through art is the focus of Fermata Arts, an organization of which St. Rose School Art Teacher Mrs. Meagan Ferriter is a member. Recently the school received beautiful artwork created by students, ages 5 to 15, in Ukraine that is now on display at St. Rose School. Students in K-8 are visiting the exhibit to study aspects of Art that they are learning in class. Teachers are also using the exhibit as a springboard to discuss current affairs in an age appropriate manner. Mrs. Ferriter is working on "We are the World" themed projects with her students that will eventually be sent to classrooms in Ukraine.

Many of these students joined St. Rose in Preschool, others came along the way. Together they became a family and filled our halls with learning, love and laughter. As they head off to a variety of high schools we have full confidence that they will continue to shine their light and make the world a brighter place. Wherever they may roam, St. Rose School will always be their home. We look forward to hearing all about their new learning adventures. God blessings on all of our graduates and their families!

We are creating a brick walk by the Angel of Hope statue directly in front of St. Rose School. This is a wonderful way to connect the past, present and future generations who walk in our halls. Bricks make great gifts and capture fond memories, mark special occasions such as Confirmation, First Holy Communion, Graduation, weddings, sports highlights. They also are a lovely tribute to loved ones who have passed away. By adding your brick to the walk you also help St. Rose School continue to provide a stellar academic, faith focused education to students in Preschool through 8th grades. Brick purchases can be made online, https://polarengraving.com/stroseoflimaschool. Questions? Email bloomsbricks@srles.com.

Thank you and God bless!

The Administration, Faculty, Students and Parents of St. Rose School are engaged in daily lessons and activities, keeping classes and connections on track during this time. Parent reactions to the transition have been positive with feedback such as "one of the biggest benefits to the smooth transition is that our children are engaged throughout the day. They are not bored. " The Administration and Faculty speak frequently to ensure that learning is maximized and that parents are not overtaxed. Teachers maintain 8 a.m. - 8 p.m. hours Monday to Friday and parents have been respectful of their weekend time to recharge. Plans are underway for virtual events including Spirit Day and Honor Roll call among others. Families receive a weekly newsletter (provide link) and key updates from the Principal as well as occasional "checking in" video messages. This is a team effort and everyone is doing their part to make it successful.
