Back to School Night Annual Fund Campaign Update
As discussed at Back to School Night, the annual fund is not a new campaign or unique to our school. Like all other private educational institutions, RSPS relies on the annual fund to help us offer competitive tuition, retain talented faculty, provide outstanding academics and offer extraordinary enrichment programs that make the RSPS experience so meaningful for our students.
At the end of October, the annual fund campaign will begin with letters, social media posts and outreach efforts. Donations can be made online, by check, cash or through your FACTS account. In order to realize our goal, we are recommending a $250 gift per family, but appreciate any gift amount. Gift amounts of $250 or more will be recognized on a donor wall at the spring gala and donors will be invited to attend a principal’s reception at the conclusion of the campaign.
Visit https://www.resstpaul.org/giving/make-a-gift-today to make a gift or contact Stephanie Finamore with any questions.
A Note from Our Morning Drop-Off Helpers
May we suggest you try to get your young person to gather their belongings as you come into the parking lot to make exiting your vehicle more time-efficient. Also, you don't need to exit your vehicle to assist with items unless absolutely necessary. This will help move things along much more quickly. Thank you for helping us in our efforts to help the students out of the vehicles safely and off to class for a great day!

Lifeguards needed for the morning Car Pool!
Consider diving into the fray one day a week by helping students exit their vehicles. It's a great way to earn service hours as well as practice your lifeguard skills!
However, like any good lifeguard you have to be trained which means you will need to
do the Virtus background program in order to obtain your "lifeguard pass." More
information available by contacting Joanne Dewey at jdewey@resstpaul.org.
