Safety, Security, and Style at St. Rose!
We’ve had a busy Holiday Break at SRS, and we are thrilled to share some major upgrades as we kick off the new year!
Safety First: The safety of our students and staff is our top priority. Over the break, we installed several new safety and security features throughout the building. To ensure these tools work seamlessly, our staff participated in live simulations alongside local first responders TJ Tebbe, Neil Lohmann, and Dan Trame. This collaboration ensures we are all on the same page and prepared to act in unison.
New Stage: We are also excited to announce that we have secured funding for a brand-new stage! Whether it’s for kindergarten and 8th-grade graduations, student performances, or award ceremonies, this new space will be the perfect place to celebrate our students' achievements.
It Takes a Village: These improvements wouldn’t be possible without the incredible support of our community. A massive thank you to:
24 Local Organizations (Our Partners in Education)
Metro AG - Patial Stage Funding
SRS PTO - Partial Stage Funding / Security Funding
SRS Booster Club - Partial Stage Funding
Thank you for continuing to make St. Rose a safe, supportive, and enjoyable place to learn and grow! 🐾

Not a Fundraiser- Just spreading Christmas Cheer
St. Rose PTO is sponsoring a Santa's Kottage this year for PreK-4th Grade Students (MS students will be getting a gift as well at a later time).
Each PreK- 4th grade student will get a chance to preview the gifts on December 8&9 in school, and bring home a wish list. The PTO will be gifting (from a previous fundraiser) each student $6 to spend on what they choose. If the student wishes to spend more than $6 to purchase additional gifts for family members, and the parents approve, they will need to supply the additional money in the envelope. Please fill out the back of the envelope and return with your children to school the following day after their preview. We want them to be excited to be able to pick out their own gifts to give, with no one left out. There will be gifts for moms, dads, grandparents, siblings and pets to choose from.
Gifts all range from $1-$8
We will be there to assist the students with their purchases and to stay on budget!

November is National Diabetes Awareness Month, a crucial time to bring attention to the millions of people affected by diabetes, a condition that impacts nearly 1 in 10 Americans.
To show our collective support for all those living with diabetes, their families, caregivers, and the ongoing efforts to find a cure, we encourage everyone to participate in our "Wear Blue" day!
👖 Details
What: Wear Blue Clothing (shirts, ties, scarves, dresses, etc.) - Please no face paint
💡 Why Awareness Matters
Wearing blue is a simple yet powerful way to spark conversations, educate others about the risks and symptoms of diabetes, and stand in solidarity with the global diabetes community.
We look forward to seeing our school turn blue! Thank you for your support and participation in this important cause.
