St. Rose-McCarthy Catholic School

Week 2 of summer and I’m still thinking about the incredible 5th grade science projects our students created this year! 🔬🌎✨

For their end-of-year project, students were challenged to choose their favorite science topic from the school year and bring it to life through a display project. From interactive volcano demonstrations and detailed solar systems to models of the Earth’s layers and so much more, their creativity, knowledge, and hard work were on full display.

It was such a joy to see students take ownership of their learning and share their passion for science with others. These projects were a wonderful reminder that learning becomes even more meaningful when students get the chance to explore what excites them most.

Great job, 5th grade! Your curiosity and creativity continue to inspire—even during summer break! ☀️🧪💡

Today we say goodbye and thank you to our principal, Kim Hodges, for her 3 years of leadership, dedication, and love for our school community. Your guidance and support have helped shape so many memories and moments for our students, staff, and families, and we are so grateful for the impact you’ve made.

We wish you nothing but success, happiness, and blessings in this next chapter. You will always be a part of our school family. 💙

Wishing our staff, teachers, students, and families a safe, joyful, and restful summer. Thank you for another incredible school year!

Yesterday was Dress Like a Teacher Day, and our students absolutely understood the assignment! 🍎✨ From dressing as their favorite teacher to creating their own “teacher look,” the creativity, laughs, and sweet moments made the day so special.

Seeing students imitate the teachers they look up to was both hilarious and heartwarming. Thank you for bringing so much joy and school spirit to our last week of school! ❤️

Today marked our last day of electives for the school year! ✨ This year, students explored World Cuisine, Innovation, 3D Art, and Gardening — gaining new skills, creativity, and unforgettable experiences along the way.

Just a quick sneak peek into the year: students made food from around the world 🌎, coded robots 🤖, created animals out of crepe paper 🎨, and learned how to reuse and recycle plastic bottles by turning them into bird feeders ♻️🐦.

What an incredible year of hands-on learning and creativity. We already can’t wait to see what next year brings!

Last night was filled with tears, hugs, laughter, and so much love as we said goodbye to our incredible 8th graders at graduation. Watching these students walk to receive their diplomas was a beautiful reminder of how much they have grown throughout their years at our school.

We are deeply grateful to every past and present teacher who poured their hearts into shaping, guiding, encouraging, and forming these students during their formative years. Your dedication helped prepare them not only academically, but spiritually and personally as well.

To the Class of 2026: go forward and be the light that shines brightly in the world and the salt that brings goodness, faith, and kindness wherever you go. We pray you always carry Christ with you in all that you do.

Congratulations, graduates, you will always have a home here. 🤍🎓

Bittersweet watching our 8th graders complete their final Robotics for a Better World project before graduation. Students identified real-world problems and designed, built, coded, and programmed robots to help solve them. They then presented their ideas to the school in a “Shark Tank”-style showcase. So proud of the teamwork and creativity they showed throughout this project. Keep an eye out for some videos to come. They did an amazing job! 🤖

Muffins with Mom is upon us! Moms, grandmas, aunts, godmothers, or any special guests. RSVPs are due tomorrow! Bring your forms and money to the front office!

We cannot wait to spoil all the moms and special guests that are dear to our students heart. 🤎
