Rossman School Raises $384 for Circle of Concern

Rossman School students and teachers recently broke the school’s dress code for a good cause.

Rossman School raised $384 to buy blankets for Circle of Concern by holding a “No Dress Code Day.” Participants paid $2 on Friday, December 2, to the school’s student council for the right to disregard the school’s dress code for the day.

The fundraiser coincides with a schoolwide effort in December to collect everyday items for Circle of Concern. Circle of Concern feeds the hungry and provides long-term and emergency assistance to low-income families in western St. Louis County.

Rossman School is an independent, coeducational, preparatory school for students in Junior Kindergarten (4 years old) through Grade 6. The school’s mission is to provide a strong, well-balanced education in a nurturing school community committed to excellence. Rossman School is accredited by the National Association of Independent Schools and the Independent Schools Association of the Central States. More information about the school can be found at www.rossmanschool.org.
