St. Rose School hosted their spring concert last night. they sounded wonderful thanks to Mrs. O'Farrell and Mr. Harper's efforts. The program was entitled Cartoon Mania and the crowd enjoyed hearing familiar sounds from their youth.

The purpose of Earth Day is to raise awareness of the need to protect Earth's natural resources. On Wednesday, the Middle School students celebrated Earth Day at St. Rose Park. Students participated in community service by spreading mulch, taking down temporary walls, wiping down equipment, and cleaning the pavilions. Students then enjoyed playing at the clean park and leaving positive chalk messages for walkers to enjoy. Thank you to Justin Detmer for helping us organize a fun way to help our community.

Today was the last time Kaskaskia College Cross Country team visited with the 6th grade class. The bonds the students formed with these individuals was incredible. It was a great way to encourage positivity, kindness, work ethic, organization, and determination. We thank KC for choosing us for their Adopt a Classroom program!

Our Tower Garden has grown so much since it started on March 7th! 8th grade manages the water levels & nutrients in the Tower Garden.

We are monitoring the weather and we will delay the release of students at the end of the day if it is no safe to send them on the bus. If you would like to pick up your child you may do so after 2:15. Middle school students are testing until 2:15.

Happy Paraprofessionals Day! We appreciate ALL you do for St. Rose School!

6th grade students learned about thermal energy transfers, insulators, and conductors. Students also learned about the South African penguins who are on the endangered list due to their igloos being destroyed by humans and the penguins not being able to withstand the heat. Armed with $100 "Voss Bucks" students purchased materials to make an igloo to hold a penguin ice cube. The igloo would then undergo 15 minutes of radiation from a heat lamp. The goal was to save 75% of the penguin ice cube mass.
