Service to the Community
At Most Holy Rosary School, we emphasize the importance of community service throughout the school year. Each month, our students engage in various service projects and volunteer with local organizations, including Sara’s Guest House.
One notable initiative is the Grand Wrap It program, where students select gifts to donate to children in need. Additionally, we adopt children from the Brady Faith Center to ensure they receive Christmas presents, fostering a spirit of compassion and generosity in our students. Through these efforts, we aim to instill a lifelong commitment to service and community involvement.
Weekly Virtues
At Most Holy Rosary School, Weekly Virtues play a crucial role in our educational framework, aligned with our five pillars. Each week, we focus on a specific virtue that is seamlessly integrated into daily instruction. These virtues guide students’ behavior, fostering a deeper understanding of moral values and character development. By emphasizing these principles, we encourage our students to embody virtues such as respect, responsibility, and compassion, nurturing a positive and supportive school environment that prepares them for future challenges.
