Dear Friend of Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament Parish and Queen of the Rosary School:

Preparations are underway for our annual spring fundraiser, which promises to bring the parishes, school, and community together for an enjoyable evening of dining, auctions, and fun.  We look forward to seeing everyone as we gather at this year’s gala and “Light up the Night” to show our support and gratitude for being a part of the Queen of the Rosary School Family.  We are hoping that we can count on the support of wonderful businesses and families such as yours to help us create a spectacular evening. 

It takes a village

It does take a village to form, educate, and inspire children.  Students of Queen of the Rosary School see themselves as part of a community that supports not only their school but communities in need beyond theirs.   Whether they are raising money for victims of natural disasters, keeping our towns and villages green by recycling, or collecting canned goods for the hungry, Queen of the Rosary students and their families always give generously to their school and beyond. 

Queen of the Rosary School, located in Elk Grove Village, Illinois, is a small Catholic school comprised of approximately 230 students ranging from 3-year-old preschool to eighth grade.  Established in 1959, Queen of the Rosary School has instituted and maintained a strong academic presence in Elk Grove Village for over 60 years. Today Queen of the Rosary School is proud to be a part of Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament Parish, allowing the school’s traditions and sense of community to continue to attract new students, as well as second and third generations of families.

To assist in continuing to provide a faith-based, nurturing environment that promotes academic excellence and spiritual development we need your help. The spring gala is an opportunity for our school, parish, and community to all come together to help supplement the school budget.  It affords our principal, Ms. McGinn, and the faculty to continue to offer students an excellent academic and faith-based education. The school’s main sources of revenue are tuition and fundraising.  As such, successful fundraising is critical to the schools ongoing ability to operate effectively.
