Sargent Benjamin Griswold  (Oliver's Dad, Prek) encourages our students to take the pledge, "Raise your right hand and repeat after me - I AM A VOLUNTEER - Raise your left hand.  Look to your left.  Look to your right.  Imagine what you amazing students could do with incredible minds and useful hands to volunteer and serve.  You must take the initiative to volunteer.  The action of saying yes to volunteer is the selfless sacrifice of your own time to serve someone or something other than yourself.   Just like our veterans ... to make the selfless sacrifice to serve others."

Thank you to all our men and women who served in the USA Armed Forces and Peace Corp.  We are grateful to you.

We strongly urge Holy Rosary School students, family members, teachers and staff members to participate in this fun, worthwhile event.  Entry forms are available in the school office.  We really hope that you can join us and support our school.
