Spring has sprung (and bounced a few different directions), and planning for your 2013 WestFest event has begun! The WestFest committee leaders are already gathering to make improvements on our successes of 2012 and launch an unforgettable school, parish and community celebration this coming fall!
As your Communications director, I want to be the first to welcome Colleen Mullany as our new Activities Chair, while thanking Katherine Gudgel for her over & above dedication to the post!!!
If you are looking to be involved, see what the committees do, and spend time with a fun & energetic group of fellow HRS parents, come join us at our first WestFest team meeting! Mark your calendars for June 10th, at 6:30pm. We’ll see you in the school hall.
We are looking forward to getting a great kickoff to WestFest, and thank everyone for their support!

The deadline for reporting parent commitment volunteer hours for the current school year is May 30, 2013. Families with uncompleted hours will be notified and must pay for the uncompleted hours by the last day of the school year. Student transcripts and/or graduation materials may be withheld until a family pays for uncompleted hours. Any volunteer hours earned in June of 2013 will be credited toward the next school year. Please refer to the Parent Commitment Hour Guidelines page for further information about reporting hours.
Some students consider the Buy One - Get One (BOGO) FREE Book Fair a highlight of the school year. Now, you may see some “happy dances” in your family as the Book Fair returns and opens on Thursday, May 30 for a five-day run. Take advantage of the savings to stock up for summer reading. Are there birthdays or other celebrations in your future? You may find exactly what you need at the book fair. Also, this fair provides a venue to thank everyone for supporting reading and the library budget through the book fair purchases you made during the school year.
If you would like to volunteer to work at the Book Fair during lunch recesses or after school, please use this link to volunteer.
Remember that everyone, students and parents alike, is invited to participate in the Summer Reading Challenge (keep an eye out for the form!). Fifteen minutes of reading each day is all it takes.

Just go to YouTube, use Carl Baber & Holy Rosary Talent as the search terms and all videos will be listed (or alternatively, click on the YouTube link, or any of the video links below). If you have any questions, please
. In accordance with school policy, no student’s or minor’s names are included in the videos.
All videos were graciously taken, edited and uploaded by Carl Baber.
