A look into what's going on at Rosebud ES!
August 4, 2023
A Note from our Principal, Mrs. Holmes
Welcome back, Families!
I hope you all had a wonderful summer and were able to spend some time with those you love. I am very glad to have you back here at Rosebud! We have had a great start to the 23-24 school year this week. It has been wonderful seeing all the familiar faces and meeting the new Comets who have joined us this school year.
I would like to encourage you to sign up as a Room Parent or volunteer for your child's classroom. Our teachers love having parental support, so let them know you are willing to help out if needed.
We will have Curriculum Night on Thursday, August 17th at 6pm. This gives you the opportunity to hear directly from your child's teacher about the upcoming school year. This event will be in-person, so please be sure to say hello! We will also hold a PTA meeting before Curriculum Night at 5pm in the Media Center. I would love for you to be a part of both of these events and help us plan for a truly great school year!
Upcoming Events

We hope you will join us for the in-person PTA meeting before Curriculum Night on August 17th. The PTA meeting will be held in the Media Center beginning at 5pm. A virtual link is available for the PTA meeting for those unable to attend the PTA meeting.
From Our PTA
PTA Wants You!
We are looking for people who understand the importance of being involved in the school culture and people who know that adult presence makes an impact on student learning. Many hands make a heavy load light. We are looking for more leaders to get involved! If that's you, please fill out this form. We appreciate all that you do for our school community. We would love to see you at our first Virtual PTA meeting on Wed. 8/9/23 at 6pm.
Join us! Our students deserve the best!
