NEWTOWN—As a way to celebrate Easter, while still practicing social distancing, St. Rose School families organized an Easter car parade to greet pastor Msgr. Robert Weiss with messages of hope, support and love.
Organized by a St. Rose parent who put the offer out and received so many positive responses.
More than 50 cars lined the parking lot decorated with Easter messages and filled with enthusiastic children and families who called out loving messages to Monsignor as they passed by the rectory porch where he stood waving back to them and calling out “Thank you and God bless.”
The St. Rose School spirit is strong!

They center their community of learning around the four core values of respect, integrity, academic excellence and service.
