Rose Hill Elementary
August 2015 Newsletter - Main Number 303-287-0163
Words from our principal:
Welcome back Rose Hill Families! We are very excited about the 2015-2016 school year. We have made some exciting changes. We have staggered our lunch times to allow more dining time. We have added more opportunities to our enrichment blocks. We will be working closely with the Parent Teacher Organization to create a healthy community & school partnership. We are thrilled to have more families than ever volunteering and attending school events. We are improving communication by providing school information on the marquee, newsletters, robo-calls, Facebook (please like us so you get updates), school website and flyers in Friday folders. Please be sure to pick up a planner for $5 in the main office for each of your students in grades 1-5; they will increase communication between Rose Hill and families and help students become more independent in their learning. Please feel free to contact anyone on the administrative team if you have any questions, would like to make suggestions, or just get to know us! Thank you for sharing your students with us and allowing us the opportunity to inspire, educate, and empower them. We are truly honored and grateful!
Respectfully,
Sherry Segura, Principal
Naomi Duran, Assistant Principal
Courtney Prusmack, Administrator of Instruction

Reminders:
Here are a few things to keep in mind:
- No school on August 28th, 2015
- Please remember to call our attendance line at 303-853-5993, to excuse your student from an absence. Vacations are not considered excused, they will be marked as unexcused absence and will affect the student's attendance.
- Please remember to not park in the Pinecrest apartments' parking lot at 5659 Olive St. Commerce City, CO 80022; the manager will be ticketing and/or towing cars who are parked on their property.
- Please remember to make arrangements with your student's teacher for birthday treats in the classroom. These need to be preapproved by the teacher and given during the last 10-15 minutes of class.
