Rosemary School’s a new website is up and active. It is more attractive, easier to see on mobile devices (e.g. tablets and smartphones), and more user friendly than our old site. Now you can easily check the events calendar, find school news, contact our staff, see what’s for lunch, and much more. You can even change the language.
We’ll be refining it and adding new features as time goes one. For now, we invite you to take a look around, try it out, and let us know what you think.
The morning launch is an important part of the Rosemary School Day. Every child is expected to be at the launch that begins at 8:00 a.m. At the launch students line up with their classes and participate in an interactive routine. The launch starts with the Pledge of Allegience and the 3 B's Chant. After the chant we participate in a short exercise. These days we will be doing crossovers in which students touch their right knee with their left elbow, then their left knee with their right elbow. After the exercises Mr. Schmaedick shares a message with the whole school. This week the focus is on participation. Mr. Schmaedick will be emphasizing what it looks like when students are participating.
The chant for the week is:
Easy work is not enough! To grow my brain needs work that's tough!
The same old brain work just won't do. To grow my brain needs work that's new.
Join us for the launch! It only lasts 7 minutes!
Welcome back Rosemary Rockets! We are back to school and back to work. The students are settling in and getting to know their teachers and the routines. This week there is a lot of focus on learning the expectations and classroom routines.
During the first month each class thas been moving fast, learning a lot. Attention was paid to our school-wide behavior expectations and all students have learned our Three B's Chant. In addition, we had a super assembly called The Best Me presented by the Kaiser Permanente Educational Theatre Group. The presentation reminded students to exercise, minimize screen time, drink water rather than other drinks, and eat five fruits and vegetables a day.
Our Three B's Chant is:
We know what we want to see.
We know how we want to be.
Respectful means that I don't fight.
I treat all people and all things right.
Responsible, how do I start?
It simply means I do my part.
Caring, what's that all about?
Helping other people out!
Be respectful. Be responsible. Be caring.
The three B's!

Every day this summer, let's make an effort to do the four things that we talked about at the end of the school year:
Have a great break!

We will be starting a new procedure for lost and found items at Rosemary. Every Friday our lost and found collected for the week will be out in front of the school for families to check and see if something belongs to their student. Please be prompt with the pickup. On a bi-weekly basis those items that are not picked up will be donated.
