Book Fair Coming Soon

Dear Parents and Families:

Get ready! New books to encourage your student's love for reading are coming! Here's what you need to know about our upcoming Book Fair: Dates: April 24-26 from 11 am - 4 p.m. at the Intersection in Rose Park!

• Every dollar you spend will benefit our school library directly! This is our only fundraiser to add new books to the library. Last year our library gained 300 new books because of this fundraiser! 

• You can sign up for Book Fair eWallet on April 3 or later—a convenient digital payment account, so your child can shop the Fair cash-free. Grandparents, friends, and others can contribute to the eWallet to help build your home library. To sign up, link to the Book Fair Homepage and scroll to the bottom of the page.  Sign up begins April 3.

Parent/Teacher Conference Meal Help

Our gracious parent board is organizing meals for our teachers during parent/teacher conference evenings. If you’re able and willing to contribute to the yummies, THANK YOU and please check this link!

Sharing Our Gifts

Park Township approached Rose Park several weeks ago requesting HELP from the creative thinking our students are becoming well known for! 

Park Township is in the brainstorming stage of designing a community center near the property of the Park Township office. Our Rose Park kids, at their request, have been engaging in a design thinking process developing a community center that children and families might get excited about visiting! You are invited to the township open house with your child if you’d like to share in the process. Details of this event can be found HERE!

3rd Quarter Progress Reports

Friday - March 22 will be the end of our 3rd Quarter in Kindergarten. Your student has been working so hard and learning so many new things. During our Parent/Teacher Conference I will highlight the areas we have been working on and will give you an idea of where they are at.

In the last quarter of Kindergarten we are going to continue to do a lot of learning and growing. Expectations will continue to grow, as we are preparing for first grade. I will continue to send home bi-weekly progress reports with skills we are working on. Please continue to work with your child on a daily basis with their reading, cvc words, heart words, and math. By doing this you are helping reinforce concepts we are learning in the classroom as well as helping these concepts stick.
