Walk-a-Thon Success!

It was a fantastic day for a Walk-a-thon! Students walked, ran, skipped, danced and had a BLAST! Check out our video montages posted to our school Facebook page.

Thanks to everyone’s incredible effort and generosity, this year’s Walk-a-Thon was a huge success in raising funds to support our school! It was a close race, but THIRD Grade came out on top raising the most money at $4524. Great job Third Grade!

Top earners in each class will be contacted to be notified of your Dress Down Day prize.

THANK YOU to all of our walkers, donors, volunteers and supporters!

Christmas Gift Giving Program

Right now we don't have enough volunteers to serve all the families in need, so if you have the ability, please consider participating in this worthy cause!

One of the most special traditions at St. Rose of Lima Academy is here again...our Christmas Gift Giving Program! Through this program we make sure that there is at least one present under the tree for the children of St. Rose of Lima Church in Newark and the seniors and families of St. Joseph’s Social Service Center in Elizabeth. Please consider helping these children, families and seniors during the Christmas holidays.

Ways to participate:

Donate money here and our holiday shoppers will buy the gifts to save you time.

This is such a lovely way to give back during the holiday season and a great way to get your children involved in giving as well.

Student Council Elections Underway

Our middle school students have been hard at work preparing for their Student Council campaigns! This week, candidates showcased their leadership skills by writing and delivering speeches, as well as designing creative posters to support their campaigns.

Next week, students in grades 5-8 will cast their votes to elect our new student leaders! Good luck to all the candidates!

In the Classroom...

Congratulations to our Eighth Graders who sat for the High School Placement Test today! We know all of your hard work preparing will pay off. Enjoy a well-deserved weekend!
