Rose Hill Students display Orginal Artwork in local Art Gallery

RHES Art Galler

 

Two weeks ago, several of our students had their art work on display at the Nepenthe Gallery located in Fort Hunt. Mr. Irby has been hosting an Art Club for most of the year and once a week, students stay after school to learn various art types, refine their techniques, and work on projects. It’s been a great avenue of expression for many students! Thank you also goes to Kate Pennington, our Familiy Liaison, for coordinating the show with the gallery.


Roehm

New Assistant Principal Coming to Rose Hill

Current Assistant Principal Mike Staroscik will be leaving Rose Hill after this school year. Mr. Staroscik will be an ESOL Educational Specialist and will continue to support schools and teachers within Fairfax County. 

There were over 40 applicants for the Assistant Principal position and through a rigorous interview process, Ms. Christina Roehm has landed the position of the next RHES position. Ms. Roehm has been an early childhood special education teacher for over 10 years and has held various leadership roles as the Summer Site Director and Acting Support Administrator. Ms. Roehm will join Mrs. Miller and Ms. Edwards starting in July.

We are excited to welcome Ms. Roehm to the Rose Hill team and community!


NoParking2

No Parking on Rose Hill Drive

There has been a significant uptick in the amount of cars that are parking on Rose Hill Drive before and after school. This simply is not allowed. When you do this, you are creating a major safety hazard for cyclists, public transportation is not able to access their stops, and when students are crossing the road outside of a crosswalk, the danger increases that much more. You may either park in the neighborhood or go through the Kiss & Ride line. Please stop parking on Rose Hill Drive.
