Field Day Fun!

Field Day

 

We had such a beautiful, albiet a bit warm, day for Field Day 2024! The students had so much fun go through all of the stations both inside and outside of the school. The parent volunteers were amazing, cheering on the students, participating alongside the students, and helping out in all aspects. The school ice machine broke a few weeks ago and while we have one on order, it has not yet made it to school so PTA stepped in to purchase large amounts of ice for us. Thank you!!! Our specialists team, led by PE teachers, Mrs. Peevy, Mrs. Atoum, and Ms. Martel are intregal in making this event happen and they deserve special kuddos as well!


It's going to be a busy summer at RHES!

This summer is going to be a busy one at Rose Hill! The school is hosting five summer programs which will have between 600-700 students in the building on a daily basis. In addition to the summer student programs, we will be undergoing four major capital improvement projects, one which will start this Saturday.

  1. Outdoor security cameras installation, more information is below.
  2. Fine-tuning the HVAC -- This is something that has been being worked on all year and continues to be a challenge because we are an older building. The contractors hope to help make the HVAC systems work in a more consisten and efficient manner.
  3. Removal of underground oil tank -- There is an oil tank located by door 3 (it's under the slab of concrete between the gym and door 2) which will be removed the first of July. This project will be about a week long but does require a crane to come in and lift the oil tank out of the ground.
  4. Office Upgrade - Starting Saturday, the main office will undergo a small upgrade which will include the replacement of the carpet and tile. There will also be asbestos abatement. In addition, the small bits of carpet located through the hallways and door entries will also be upgraded. 

Installation of Outdoor Security Cameras

Security Cameras

Through a grant, FCPS is installing 31 outdoor security cameras in various locations along the main building and mod at Rose Hill. The work started a few weeks with the running of wires inside the building and you can see the installation of the actual cameras happening when you come to school. It is anticipated that this project with will be finished and fully operational by mid-July. We are appreciative of this as the Rose Hill building and grounds have a high level of community use.


INOVA Cares Pediatric Health Fair

There are a few summer health clinics that Inova will be hosting. These clinics are for Medicaid or Uninsured Children only. Here is a flyer with more information. Clinics will be held on a Saturday from 9am-1pm and no appointments are required.



Preschool Promotion

 

Tuesday evening, Rose Hill celebrated the Preschool students with an end-of-the year celebration. The students sang songs, then the kiddos being promoted to Kindergarten were celebrated. Afterwards, families went outside for a picnic and to play on the playground. It was so much fun celebrating all of the learning that was accomplished this year!
