Pink Out Day @ SRS - FRIDAY
One reason why some of us choose to live in Clinton County is because we take care of our own.
We have an opportunity to help a high school senior from Mater Dei who was in a severe car accident a few weeks ago.
St. Rose School will be participating in a pink out day on Friday, March 28th in honor of Maci McCabe to help her family with medical bills.
Students can dress in pink please no makeup or hairspray.
Families or students wishing to make a monetary donation to the McCabe Family can bring it to the office by Friday and we will make sure the family receives those funds.
Thank you in advance for your generosity and supporting families in our County!


We had the privilege of having Central's band come & wake us up last week! They did a great job & it was fun to see several St. Rose alumni in the band and color guard!

PM Student Pick Up:
For your child's safety and security, teachers will bring students to the cafeteria to be received by parents after school. Students will not be released on their own to walk through the parking lot by themselves or released to anyone other than who is recorded in TeacherEase as a pick up person. Unless the student brings a note to school or parent calls the office to change pick up arrangements.
Once you walk your child to your car you may exit on Main Street if you are parked behind Church
or
Exit on Church Street if you are parked by the playground. Please do not drive across the parking lot where students are exiting the building. Please communicate this procedure with other caregivers that may be picking up students. We appreciate your cooperation in keeping our students safe!
Please also be mindful of students crossing at street corners at the end of the day. We will be working in conjunction with the Clinton County and the Village to see if a safer passage can be attained to help students cross at the corner of Main St. and Church Street.


DICK'S Sporting Goods is offering the families of the SIJHSAA a 20% off discount throughout the store to help you gear up for the holiday season! The coupon is valid in-store from December 13-15 and should be shown at the register during checkout.


The first semester is flying by and if you are an 8th grader or a parent of one, the second semester will go even faster for you. As we help our students transition to high school we invite them to arrange a "Shadow Visit" with the following policy guidelines and filling out the Shadow Request Form found below and on our app or website in the documents folder:
Eighth grade students will be afforded the opportunity to take two (2) days during their eighth grade year to shadow a student from Breese Central High School (1 Day) and/or Breese Mater Dei High School (1 Day). Arrangements must be made in advance with the corresponding high school as well as St. Rose Elementary.
All homework must be picked up before the high school shadow experience and is expected to be completed and turned in the following day for full credit.
The Shadow Request must be signed and turned into the St. Rose Office no less than 1 day before the shadow request date to indicate an excused absence. Students are responsible for any assignments assigned or collected during their shadow day. Please note: An unexcused absence will result in “0” for any grades that are taken for the day of the unexcused absence.
