Winter Coat Donation
Last week, Kate Pennington, received Summit Church's annual donation of new winter coats for our students. They arrived just in time for the chilly weather! Rose Hill has strong partnerships with many community organizations and we appreciate the various ways that they support our students and families.
PTA Updates
1,2,3,4...We Declare a Penny War!!!
December 2nd-13th, students can fill their grade's water jug (located in the front lobby) with coins before and after school. Pennies, other coins, and bills ($1-$20) collected in the jugs earn points. The grade level with the most points after two weeks wins 1st place!
Looking for a way to keep the kids entertained over the holidays? Need a great gift idea? Dave & Buster's has you covered! Beginning on November 22nd, for every Dave and Buster's $20 Power Card purchased using the QR code located in this flyer, $10 will be donated back to Rose Hill PTA. It's a win/win! Last date to order is January 22, 2025.

We are Thankful for YOU!
Thursday's Harvest Luncheon was a tremendous success with just over 500 adults in attendance! This was the largest turnout in years and the watching the students eat with their parents gave everyone great joy!
Mrs. Miller, Asst. Principal, coordinated this event and decorated the cafeteria with the help of Linda Layton, our Administrative Assistant.
It was so busy that we only managed to get one photo, which was a picture of the kitchen team before the event started. They did a great job keeping the line moving and ensuring everyone had a great feast!

Enrichment Programs at Rose Hill
Did you know that we have had morning enrichment programs at Rose Hill this fall? Mrs. Olin, parent and PTA member, brought this idea to the school administrative team last spring and has been instrumental in getting it off the ground. Eight classes have been offered which range in intrests from science to Legos to crocheting. It is a combination of vendors and RHES team members that offer courses.
If you are interested in possibly signing your child up for an enrichment class, stay tuned for more information. They will start in February and be held after school. Volunteers are intregral to making these programs run so please consider giving your time an hour or two a week.
