May 1st is Principal Appreciation Day. Rosholt School District is fortunate to have two highly qualified and very dedicated principals. Shane Larson and Mary Cline go above and beyond the call of duty each day just to keep things running smooth . They have committed themselves to being present for their students, teachers, support staff, families and the community, often working long hours outside of the school day. Please take a moment to show your appreciation for our two outstanding principals.
We are proud of these high school reading students who created this eye catching sign to place in a high traffic hallway. The sign gives students in ALL grades some great ideas to include empathy and kindness in each day, INCLUDING how to be kind to yourself!
