Why should you join
the rose park pta?
It is the mission of the PTA to keep parents apprised of events and activities going on at Rose Park, connect families and foster relationships, empower parents to get involved in our school, and provide our children with tools that might otherwise be unavailable to them.
HOW DO WE DO THESE THINGS?
You will frequently see flyers coming home on bright green paper, as well as stickers on your child's shirt reminding families of events. When you sign up for membership, you will be added to our Rose Park PTA email list and receive updates, as well as discounted Rose Park Spirit Wear!

EVENTS PUT ON BY YOUR PTA
Spirit day
Students wearing Rose Park apparel will have the opportunity to win prizes and other fun things! *We usually have a fall and spring order for Rose Park Spirit Wear*
pastries for parents
This is a great way to meet other parents/guardians at Rose Park! Offered on a weekday morning before school. Come enjoy a hot cup of coffee and bite to eat!
Family nights at skate world & MacKenzie River pizza co.
Enjoy dinner out with the family or lace of up skates for some great fun and exercise! These businesses return money to our PTA for anyone who participates.
Holiday stroll
Join us in December as we go caroling down nearby Christmas Wreath Lane, then meet back at the school for hot cocoa, coffee, and cookies!
Staff appreciation
This is a wonderful opportunity to show our teachers and staff how AMAZING they are! We try to spoil them with special gifts, extra breaks, and - of course - FOOD!
