Enrichment Coordinators Needed

One of the wonderful opportunities that St Rose of Lima Academy provides to the students is the after-school Enrichment Program. It allows students to join clubs and activities right after school to learn skills and have fun with friends.

 

In the past the students were able to participate in Money Management Club, Dance, Puzzle & Code Cracking Club, Songwriting, Creative Writing, Art and Soccer.

 

We want to continue this tradition, but to do so we need volunteers to assist with coordinating.

 

New to the school? No problem, you can do this! If you have questions about the details of the role, reach out to Alexandra at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

 

We are also still looking to fill many spots to help plan our biggest fundraiser, Wish Upon a Star, which takes place in the spring.

 

Sign up to volunteer!

First Cross Country Meet

The Cross Country team had their first meet at the XC Assumption Invitational. The gloomy weather didn't stop them from having fun and running hard. Go Ravens!

MAP Growth Testing is Under Way

The Second through Eighth Grade students began MAP Growth testing this week. These tests help assess knowledge and growth in a variety of academic subjects for the teachers to use to understand their students and tailor the classroom experience accordingly.

Meet the SRLA Advisory Board Members
