Happy Holy Week to you all,
I want to wish you all a very Blessed Easter weekend. May the sorrow and joy of Jesus’
death and resurrection be a sign of comfort and hope for us all.
With the new CDC rules about 3’ of distance between students, I feel confident that we can
move to a cap of 20 students per grade level for next school year. If things continue to
improve I don’t see an issue with this. However, if the pandemic escalates over the
summer, we could revert to the class cap of 18 for any classes that aren’t over 18 students
at that point.
If there is a positive COVID-19 case in the future, we will follow the 3’ of social distancing
rule as our guide when determining which students are considered close contacts.
Currently our desks, seating arrangements, and other policies will not be changed. We
have made it this far, and we see the light at the end of the tunnel! We are so grateful for
everyone's patience in adhering to the health guidelines in the MDH Decision Tree, and
request that we all keep doing what we have been doing. I couldn’t be more thrilled with
how much we have accomplished this year.
Peace,
Mr. Slaikeu

We Need Old Magazines!
Mrs. Brytowski, our art teacher, is looking for old

Free Lunch All School Year! We're excited to announce that all students will have access to free lunches this whole school year. Free meals are now available to all children at Saint Rose. The USDA has announced it will waive all fees for school meals for the rest of the school year. This is an extension of the summer meals program that provided more than 185,000 meals to families throughout distance learning and into the summer. Students attending our Faithful Beginning Prekindergarten School Day or All Day programs will eat lunch in the classroom from 11:00 AM–11:30 AM. Students have the option of receiving lunch or milk or bringing a bag lunch and beverage from home.
If you have a current balance in your lunch account, you have two options.
1. Keep it and use it for 2021-2022 lunches at school.
2. Email the Roseville School District Nutrition Services Lunch Program @
jodi.goodwill@isd623.org and request a refund.

Feeling Sick? Check Yourself Before Heading
to School
Families, students, and staff are expected to self
screen and take their temperature at home every day
before coming to school.
Anyone experiencing any of the following should stay
home:
A fever equal to or greater than 100.4°F
A new onset and/or worsening cough
Difficulty breathing
New loss of taste or smell
Anyone experiencing any two of the following should also stay home:
Sore throat
Nausea
Vomiting
Diarrhea
Chills
Muscle pain
Excessive fatigue
New onset of severe headache
New onset of nasal congestion or runny nose
Does your child have a new onset of any symptom listed above (for example, new
loss of smell only) with no other diagnosis to explain it?
Has your child, or anyone you have been in close contact with, been diagnosed with
COVID-19, or been placed on quarantine for possible contact with COVID-19?
Has your child been asked to self-isolate or quarantine by a medical professional or a
public health official?
If you replied YES to any of the questions in the checklist, please reference theMDH

symptom details. Call the office at 651-646-3832 or email attendance@mysaintrose.net
State Offering Free Testing to Slow
the Spread of Covid-19
The state of Minnesota is strongly
encouraging people between the ages of 18-
35 to get tested for COVID-19 now,
especially if you are in school and heading
home for winter break. Anyone planning to
see family over the holiday is also encouraged to get tested.
To make it easier to get tested, the state is offeringNo-Cost At-Home COVID Testing for all
Minnesotans - with or without symptoms. This saliva test is just as accurate as the nasal
swab test and is available at no cost for every Minnesotan, whether or not you have
insurance. With the COVID-19 positivity rate climbing higher than ever before, expanding
access to COVID-19 testing to all communities across the state is critical to keeping
Minnesotans informed and safe.
Don't forget, after you get tested:
Stay home and away from others, especially if you have symptoms. Even if you do
not have symptoms, it is best to stay home, but if you have to leave, wear a mask and
stay 6 feet from others.
Start making a plan for what you will do if you have a positive test because you will
need to stay home for at least 10 days.
Make a list of people you have been in close contact with recently. Tell them you
may have COVID-19 and they should stay away from others until they hear from
you.
If you were tested because you were in contact with someone who has COVID-19
and you do not have symptoms, you should stay home while waiting for your test
results and you will need to stay home for 14 days even if your test is negative
because you could still become sick.
If you were tested out of curiosity or for an upcoming medical procedure and you do
not have symptoms, you do not have to stay home while waiting for your test
results.Not regularly receiving The Redhawk but would like to?
Send us an email at info@mysaintrose.net and tell us to put you on the list!
The mission of Saint Rose of Lima Catholic School is
to provide quality academic education,
religious education, and faith formation
for our students.
It is our goal to prepare our children
as lifelong learners who will grow spirituallyand intellectually as responsible Christians
and citizens of our global community.
