Dear St. Rose School Supporters, 

This year, our school will celebrate its 75th Anniversary of being a beacon of Catholic Education in Cowlitz County. Throughout our history, our mission–to provide a Christ-centered environment that promotes faith development, academic excellence, and a commitment to service–has remained the cornerstone of our school community. From the first day the school opened until now, we have been blessed with supportive pastors, committed educators, and families who entrust us to guide their children to be world changers.  

As our school continues to be the largest outreach mission of the parish family, we depend on your support to offer our students the resources they need to flourish. The Annual School Appeal is a call to our new parish family to actively engage in this partnership by supporting St. Rose Catholic School students through contributions to various needs of our community. Do you know that the average cost a family pays in tuition for this school year is $7,000 per child? This is not only a huge commitment from our families, but also from individual contributors, The Fulcrum Foundation, The Knights of Columbus, and people just like you.  

Your faithful generosity and support have helped to build a solid foundation for St. Rose School, and I am now asking you to prayerfully consider a special School Appeal donation for this year. Would you consider giving $75 in celebration of our 75th Anniversary? Or perhaps you would consider supporting our school with a gift in honor or memory of someone who helped shape St. Rose School as the thriving place it is today.  

I am truly grateful for the support we have received over the years, and my hope is that you continue to envision our school as an essential and vital part of our new parish family. With your help, St. Rose School will continue to be a guiding light and a reflection of Christ’s love in our community.  

Please return the enclosed envelope with your donation or make an online contribution on our school website. Thank you for your continued prayers, love, and support. 

With Gratitude,
Kristin Silva
