Rose Lane Principal Letter...
Hello, Rose Lane Families and CareGivers:
Wow! We have had a great first week of the Fourth Quarter, with many celebrations!
First of all, our Leukemia and Lymphoma Society fundraiser generated over $1,200 to help fight blood cancers! Thank you so much for your generosity on our Pay for Pajama Day which supported this effort.
Second of all, we have had a large number of successful Donors Choose projects this month. Mrs. Beidler, Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Crowley, Mrs. Ewald, Ms. Gonzalez, Ms. Frazier, Mrs. Graefe, Mrs. Gulick, Mrs. Heffington, Mrs. Maloney, Mrs. McGuire, and Mrs. Yong created requests for photo printers, digital frames, a variety of instructional games and resources, and many other items which have been arriving daily this week. We will post pictures on Class Dojo and our instagram account @madisonazroselane as they continue to arrive.
Third of all, we have been going field trips, rehearsing for our shows, and performing in front of live audiences. What a difference 365 days makes, when compared to the limitations we experienced last year! Thank you for your support for these events, whether it's by paying your activity fee, helping us out as chaperones, ushering for our performances, or selling our school swag in the lobby of the Madison.
Our entire staff is resourceful, talented, and dedicated to their responsibility to help students grow and learn. Part of this includes preparing our kiddos for success during our end of year testing. This includes gifted testing for all 2nd graders, the new state test for all 3rd and 4th graders, and in-district MAP testing. Mr. Reyes has been doing an outstanding job of organizing all of these logistics, with assistance from Ms. Frazier who is working with us to complete her M. ED in educational leadership. Parents, please be on the lookout for information related to all of our end of year tests, which must be done in person, so we can ensure an effective, appropriate, and safe testing environment.
We are also enrolling a huge number of students who want to be at Rose Lane next year, and our front office staff is doing a really outstanding job of providing customer service! Families, if you have neighbors with school age children who may not have heard that we are already setting up for next year, please encourage them to contact Rose Lane's front office immediately for information and assistance in registering to become members of our Rockets family.
Looking forward to seeing you at our next Rocket Booster meeting on April 4th, and thanks again for an outstanding first week of 4th quarter!

Music News...
Rose Lane Music is accelerating into the end of the school year! The 2nd Grade performance is April 6th, where we will be singing and playing songs from your favorite movies. Also, 3rd and 4th graders will begin the recorder unit of instruction (parents, please forgive me!). All 3rd graders will receive a FREE recorder of their own, compliments of Rose Lane Music! 1st grade and Kindergarten concerts are coming up soon. Stay tuned...

March 2022 Spirit Day...
Come to the Rose Lane Rocket Boosters Meeting on April 4th!
Hello fellow parents and caregivers!
The PTO, Rose Lane Rocket Boosters, is going back to in person meetings starting with our April meeting on 4/4 in the Rose Lane cafeteria. We will still have a zoom meeting running in order for those who would rather attend from home. Stay tuned to Dojo for more details.
Also at our April meeting we will be having elections for board members for the next school year. If you'd like to get more involved with keeping Rose Lane the awesome school that it is, and helping our Rockets S.O.A.R. please attend and nominate yourself to join the board. Check Dojo for a message from Mrs Grapdki on how to nominate yourself ahead of time, or join in person or on line to nominate yourself the day of.
We can't wait to see you all again!
