Thank you to all the RHE families, teachers, and staff who have already donated!
PTSA Drop Box Available Today and Thursday for Cards
If you or your student would like to give an RHE teacher/staff a gift, we strongly encourage sending an electronic gift card to their district email, as many are not regularly in the building, but you may also use our drop box at the school's main entrance for cards.
Since it is being used for multiple purposes, please be sure to clearly label anything you drop off.
LWPTSA Council Awards Nominations Due Tomorrow
Do you know someone who deserves to be recognized for their contributions to the LWSD community? If so, we encourage you to take a few minutes today or tomorrow to nominate that person for an LWPTSA Council Award. Click here for a nomination form with descriptions of the various awards.
Send Us Your Winter Break Photos!
Help us show off all the diverse ways our amazing community celebrates the season in our upcoming yearbook!
Please send any winter break photos featuring your RHE student that you're willing to share to rheyearbook2021@gmail.com.
Put Some School Spirit in Your Stocking!
We have just 11 black masks and 33 gray masks still available in stock! Both styles are $12 each, adjustable, made of three layers of fabric, and embroidered locally.
If so, please consider using AmazonSmile and selecting Rose Hill Elementary PTSA as your charity. When you do, 0.5% of the price of your eligible purchases is donated to RHE PTSA to support programs and events at our school.
Donation Matching Reminder
RHE PTSA typically receives nearly half of our funding in the form of matching donations, so please ask your employer about matching your donation prior to the end of the calendar year if you haven't already done so. Below is the info to provide.

Thank you to everyone who donated during 2020; your generosity helped make positive memories for RHE students, teachers, and parents/guardians during a trying year.
New Volunteer Opportunity!
In January we will be kicking off a Class/Grade Level Liaison program. This will be a great way to meet more families and build community within your student's class, grade, and RHE as a whole. If you are interested in being a liaison (the commitment is only about two hours per month), please reach out to Kelly Kochman at kellykochman@gmail.com.
