News from the Holy Rosary/Juan Diego Community
Message from the Principal: Jan. 18th
We will have our annual State of the School Meeting this evening at 6:30 pm in the auditorium. Parents who attend will receive 2 volunteer hours. This is an "adults only" event and childcare will not be provided. I hope that you are able to attend, so that you can get an annual update on how things are going at the school, as well as upcoming items for next year. So, please join us!
The Crab Feed and Auction is almost here. It will be held on Saturday, Jan. 28th at Bellarmine Prep. If you have not purchased tickets for this fantastic event of crab, prime rib, beer, wine, silent/live auction, and dancing, please do so by this Friday. This is a critical fundraiser for our school and we need everyone's support to make this a success. You can purchase tickets through the front desk or online at: https://hrrsjda.ejoinme.org/crabfeed2017tickets.
I hope to see you at both of these important events!
Blessings,
Katie Dempsey

CYO Volleyball Sign-Ups are Here!
CYO Volleyball Season Slated to Begin Soon!
Holy Rosary Catholic School is actively taking signups for the upcoming Volleyball season and for the Girls' Volleyball.
Practices will begin in February. Leagues games will be played on Saturdays.
Holy Rosary CYO Volleyball provides a safe and balanced learning environment for players of all abilities that develops the athletic skills, character, sportsmanship, and teamwork of children in grades 4 through 8 through their participation in Volleyball. Volleyball registrations will be in the school office, beginning 11 January 2017
Cost will be about $75 per player which includes your jersey (not shorts). Registration is for grades 4-8 for boys and girls. By signing up, there is no guarantee your child will be playing on a team. Teams will need to have at least 9 players and have a coach.
Coaches Wanted!
We are looking for Volleyball coaches for grade level 4 - 8. If you are enthusiastic and willing to teach our kids about team sports, please volunteer. If you are interested in volunteering as a head or assistant coach, please let me know. You may contact me to find out if your grade level already has a coach/coaches. The Volleyball season starts practicing in February. The season will run through April, maybe into May depending how many teams we get to sign up.
Coaches are responsible for recruiting additional members at the grade level they wish to participate.
Practices will be held at Fawcett Elementary
Please contact Ralph Thomson, CYO@hrrsjda.org
