Summer Athletics Update

As of July 7, 2020

Due to recent information from the Orange County Department of Education and in conjunction with our Diocese, Rosary is canceling summer athletics programs, effective immediately. We have been advised not to operate summer youth sports programs, recreational team sports or school-based sports, until further notice.  Once statewide guidance is released, we will collectively work with the local public health officials and the Orange County Department of Education in conjunction with our Diocese to communicate our plan immediately with all families. While we know how disappointing this news may be, the safety of our students, families, and staff remains a top priority. Refunds for summer training fees will be processed immediately. We pray and hope that you and your loved ones are staying healthy.
