Our PTA can earn money every time you shop and scan! Download the Box Tops app, connect to Rosewood, and scan your receipts! Any items eligible for Box Tops will be directly applied to our school. If you shop for groceries online simply forward your receipt to [email protected]. All monies collected from these programs go directly back into funds for supplies or equipment needed for teachers/students.
Volunteer Hours
Parents are requested to complete 10 hours (per family) of volunteering at our magnet school each year. There are many ways that parents can complete their volunteer hours by volunteering with the PTA.
You can contact our Assistant Principal or the front office with any volunteer questions. Contact the AP if you're interested in volunteering at 564-3861. Volunteers must check in and check out with the front office and record their volunteer hours in the notebook in the office.
