This week AT Rosedale
This week AT Rosedale
Hello Rosedale Families,
It was a beautiful fall week here at Rosedale. Hopefully, the weather stays this nice through Halloween. Our Trunk-or-Treat event is next week on Wednesday, and we hope to see you there! You can find more information about Trunk-or-Treat in our PTA section below.
Today, students were told that our music teacher, Ms. Dadswell, will be leaving Rosedale at the end of next week. She has written a good-bye letter to the community that is copied below. Her letter captures her feelings better than anything I could say, so please continue reading the section below. We will miss Ms. Dadswell and appreciate everything she's done for our Rosedale students. Looking towards the future, we are in the process of interviewing candidates and hope to have the position filled as quickly as possible.
Next Friday, students are allowed to wear their Halloween costumes. For costumes at Rosedale during the school day, we have three major rules.
No masks
No weapons
No blood
We will have a costume parade around the outside of the building at 3:30 on Friday. Families are welcome to come and watch the parade. Once the parade ends, students will go back inside and pack up for the day. If you are coming to watch the parade, please wait at the appropriate pick-up doors after the parade ends, and we will bring your child out at dismissal time (4:00).

Dear Rosedale Families,
It is with a very heavy heart that I, Ms. Dadswell, will be saying goodbye to Rosedale and Livonia Public Schools at the end of the month. My last day in the school will be Friday, October 30th.
I have accepted a full time position at another school that is closer to home. This change is what is best for me and my family in the long run, but was not an easy one to make.
Over the past three years, I have LOVED teaching your AMAZING students! I am very fortunate that I was able to be a part of their education and their lives for so long. I have watched them grow, learn, and accomplish so many wonderful things. I will always remember the joy they brought with them into my classroom. The high fives, the hugs, the laughter, and all of the smiles. I will truly miss seeing each and every one of them every week. They have made my time here at Rosedale so very special to me. I am beyond grateful that I had the privilege to be their music teacher.
I understand that change can be hard, especially at this point in the school year. I want to make this transition as smooth as possible for all of my students, and will do everything that I can to ensure that. Before my final day, I will set time aside in each class to talk about the upcoming change, answer their questions, and share their thoughts and feelings.
Thank you and your students for welcoming me into your school community and trusting me with their music education. It has truly been a pleasure, and I will always hold all of the memories I have made with your students fondly.
With so much gratitude,
Ms. Dadswell

Elementary family Survey
Elementary family Survey
Each year, we invite families to complete a survey about their elementary school experience and share their feedback. We use this feedback to help us continue improving the educational experiences we provide for students and families. At Rosedale, we are committed to helping every Raptor learn, grow, and succeed, and your voice is an important part of that work!
Please take a minute to complete the Elementary Family Survey (click link). The survey will remain open through October 26th. Thank you for your continued support, feedback, and partnership. We are grateful for our Rosedale families.

Reminders from the office
Reminders from the office
Early check-out/pick-up: Early office checkout will end each day at 3:45. If you come after this time, you will need to follow the end of day dismissal procedures. The end of each day has a lot of activity, and it is difficult to communicate quickly with teachers when students are packing up for the day. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your patience.
Birthday Treats: If you are sending in treats for your child's birthday or another special occasion, please do not send food items. You are welcome to send in other little trinkets or prizes for the class, but we will not be able to pass out food. There are many allergies in elementary schools and this rule helps to keep all of our kids safe. Thank you for your help.
