They are deeply involved in the movement towards increased educational professionalism and commit themselves to participating in programs and conferences to further their effectiveness in the school setting. The majority of these teachers contribute their time and energy to extracurricular school clubs and functions for the students. Their expressive genuineness invites students into their safe classrooms and encourages their fellow teachers to excel. Once safety and comfort are established in the classrooms, teachers employ effective and creative teaching methods to facilitate the students' mastery of the content. Teachers rely on multisensory activities that highlight Multiple Intelligences and cooperative learning.
Students initiate much of their own learning, and hold a democratic voice within their classes.
Because of the variety of learning differences that freckle our population, teachers and students both aim for authentic assessment. Two of the truly enriching aspects of the Holy Rosary curriculum are the Religious education program and the Alpha and Omega program. The first strives to deepen spiritual commitment to Christian living, while the latter promises that our school has a special, age-appropriate curriculum for the multiple grades within our small school. Just as a house can only become a home when filled with life, so too, the structure of our school craves students in order to feel alive. The Holy Rosary campus has blossomed since its opening in 1955, when the school consisted of a one-room Kindergarten that enrolled nine students.
