Art Club- Mr. Medina
Chorus- Mr. Curry
Rosemont Chorus students
were made up of 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students who
has a love for music presentation. Each student was selected based upon their
vocal ability, the academic ability as well as their behaviors in Chorus as
well as their core classes. Each student was asked to participate throughout
the entire year in various music presentations. The students were energetic,
dedicated and willing to participate in bringing joy through song and movement
to the entire school, parents and our community. It was a joy working
with each student. Mr. Curry misses them and look forward to next year in
building their musical skills to another level.

Our
Mission for Sisters with Ambitions and Goals (S.WA.G) is to raise the
self-esteem and self-image in young girls in Title I communities and
schools. Girls in Title I schools and communities, on a large scale tend
to struggle with many issues including low self-esteem and poor self-worth,
lack of education, poverty, lack of resources, lack of opportunities,
unemployment, and homelessness, among many other issues.
Investment
needs to be made into the lives of such young women: to teach and instill
principles, good morals, good character and to help young women to live a
purposeful life. Our Mission for Sisters With Ambitions and Goals is to help
restore the identity and self-esteem of females in Title I schools and communities,
to raise up a generation of young females that will grow to become community
leaders, influential world figures, entrepreneurs, business owners and
educators by means of helping young women to develop healthy identities,
healthy self-esteem and make decisions that will not only transform their lives
but also their schools, neighborhoods, communities, cities, and their nation.
"When
women do better, countries do better, communities do better, and families do
better."
