Also, this is a great opportunity to help replenish your teacher's classroom library while earning money for our school. Please consider buying a book from your teacher's wishlist. Does your teacher not have a wishlist? No problem, you can buy them a gift card online or over the phone or buy books in-store from the curated collection for our school.

We have so many things to celebrate and be proud of here at Rosa Parks and this is thanks to so many of our staff, especially during these extra challenging times. Now caregivers have the opportunity to leave notes of gratitude in our new 💌 Gratitude Mailbox 💌 in front of our school.
Included with the Mailbox is a list outlining the many roles that people play in the day in the life of our students. We encourage you to come by and drop in a note, which will be distributed to staff members at the end of each week.
Thank you to caregivers, Heather Kostrzewa and Shannon Koy for creating this awesome gratitude box!
