Holy Rosary School and Middle School participate in many community service projects such as food drives, clothing drives, Brookside Nursing Home visits, and cleaning the parish grounds.  In the past, students have participated in fund raisers for special needs of special people and the parish, and in Keep Kenosha Beautiful. This is all meant to make religion not just words we speak, but part of our life and experiences.

We also offer an extensive technology program that teaches students to maximize their knowledge with Microsoft Windows technology. The middle school students will learn the basics of Microsoft Windows and then move into more in-depth teachings of Microsoft Office. In these lessons, they also will become more familiar with computer servers and building web sites.
