Holy Rosary School is celebrating Catholic Schools Week from Monday, Feb. 1 through Friday, Feb. 5 with the theme “Holy Rosary - Dividends for Life.” Four main “dividends” of Faith, Knowledge, Discipline and Morals are recognized, although there are many more. One of the most important, in this day and age, is that everything that is taught can be presented in the context of the sole mission - to spread the “Good News.” In today’s society, it is very important to have the freedom to pray, relate knowledge to faith, and to train and model the students in Catholic values. However, every dividend means there must be some initial investment. The investments in Holy Rosary from parishioners and parents can, at times, be challenging to meet. The dividends, though are priceless. As Catholic Schools Week is celebrated, “thanks” is extended to all parents, grandparents, friends and supporters of Holy Rosary School and everyone is invited to visit the school and view the “dividends” that are provided to the young people of the Monroe City community.
