Invest in RCS Educators During Teacher Appreciation Week!

Our teachers and staff go above and beyond to provide our students with a school year filled with challenging curriculum and innovative, hands-on learning opportunities grounded in faith. In 2020, the Fund for Academic Excellence was created to support our teachers as they continue to provide our students with the best education possible.

In the next three to five years, our goal is to increase teacher compensation to the level of 85% of the Rochester Public Schools’ teacher compensation by raising $2.2 million for the Fund for Academic Excellence. Let’s invest in our teachers!

Help us honor and support our educators during Teacher Appreciation Week, May 8 - May 12, 2023. On Sunday, May 7, the RCS community is invited to Victoria's Ristorante & Wine Bar, who will donate 25% of the food sales to the RCS Fund for Academic Excellence! The celebration continues on Monday, May 8, at Crumbl Cookies, located at 2665 Commerce Dr. NW, Suite 200, Rochester MN, 5590. Enjoy your favorite sweet treats while supporting RCS educators! Crumbl Cookies will also donate a portion of the sales that day to the Fund for Academic Excellence.

You can also make a gift by visiting our website at https://www.rcsmn.org/ffae or via the QR code NOW through Teacher Appreciation Week. You will also have the chance to give a special shout out to an RCS educator who has impacted you!

Every gift, no matter how LARGE or SMALL, helps support our educators and our schools!

Thank you for your support!

We would like to thank the Rochester Catholic Schools community for attending the following events during the 2022-2023 school year!
