The youngest children of OLHR are engaged in many meaningful activities through reading and math readiness, science exploration, music, art, dramatic play, fine and gross motor development. We believe that children learn to interact with each other and the world through play based explorations. Through this type of play, they discover their environment, experience cause and effect relationships, and explore their world. It is our goal to provide a variety of exciting and stimulating activities each day, so that young children can develop socially, emotionally, physically, and spiritually to the very best of their ability.
Our fundamental objective is to provide children with a solid education in a caring environment, which nurtures Christian values by having the Eucharist as the center of our lives. Our curriculum includes: Language Arts: Houghton Mifflin’s; Alphafriends; Handwriting without Tears (Pre-K); Houghton Mifflin’s Mathematics; Seeds (Religion); Science; Music and Movement: Computer (only Pre-K); Physical Education.
School leadership at OLHR School encourages the education and growth of Catholic values and supports the development of the whole person. Student government, therefore, exists to promote good citizenship, encourage a high standard of scholarship, arouse good spirit, demonstrate the practical application of democracy, and advance the welfare of the school and its members in every possible manner.
Students participate in an election process and are chosen by the student body to serve as student leaders. They meet weekly with a teacher moderator to plan and oversee activities such as school governance, spirit and community building, religious celebrations, fundraising, as well as school ambassadorship and community outreach.
The Saint Sebastian Sports Project (SSSP) provides Our Lady of the Holy Rosary School with resources critical to building quality team sports programs. In addition, SSSP holds clinics to enhance coaching skills and hosts flag football, volleyball, basketball, and soccer tournaments. To expose students to college opportunities, SSSP has partnered with Loyola Marymount University to sponsor fun-packed sports days. Finally, in 2017, SSSP hosted its first “Leadership Academy” to help prepare outstanding eighth-grade scholar-athletes for the transition to high school. SSSP is changing lives, one game at a time.
