Baby chicks have hatched at Rose Hill!

Chicks

If you are the parent of a Kindergartener, it's likely you have heard about the chicks hatching! Over the last few weeks, the five K classes have been incubating chick eggs and learning about the growth cycle. Imagine the surprise and excitement when they started to hatch! It has been so fun watching the children take care of the baby animals and also sharing the learning. We've had our preschool/PAC classrooms come visit as well as first grade and other grade levels. As the chicks were hatching, we even had a live stream feed so the students could watch from home. It's been a very exciting week! We are hopeful that these types of experiences create wonderful memories for the students.

Thank you from the Rose Hill Team!

It is a huge undertaking celebrating a staff as large as the Rose Hill team and the Rose Hill community out did themselves this year during Staff Appreciation Week! The RHES PTA led the effort and it took months of advanced planning. Thank you to parents, Erin Jacobs and Dianna Lopez, for all of the coordinating that was done to make it come to fruitionl Also, so many parents came in the early mornings of last week to set up, decorate, as well as ensure that throughout the day, the snacks were filled, etc. We also had a generous donation of lunch by Very Tasty Smokehouse BBQ, which is a restaurant owned by a Rose Hill parent. Please know that all of your donations made a huge difference and once again, the community definitely let the us know how much you appreciate the Rose Hill team! Thank you for the bottom of our hearts!

Bike, Walk, and Roll Day!

Bike Walk Roll Day

 

Bike, Walk, and Roll Day is a more recent Rose Hill tradition and we had our largest turnout this week! It is so much fun getting to walk and ride and roll with students as they make their way to school in the morning. There is so much chatter in the hallways leading up to this event as the kids definitely look forward to it. Thank you to the parents for participating with us! This year, Caylene Miller, AP, and our PE teachers, Mrs. Peevy, Mrs. Atoum, and Ms. Martel coordinated the event. Without their work, and the support of Fairfax County Police Department, we couldn't have done it. We are already looking forward to doing it again in the fall!
