We apologize for the confusion and appreciate your understanding.
To help make this easier, we’ve created a photo album of all Lost & Found items:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1rL_3lHZbAeocZzyfZ-t75l1k9wb45-ji?usp=drive_link
Take a few minutes to browse the album and see if anything belongs to your child. If you spot an item:
- Comment directly on the original Rosedale Elementary Facebook Page Post or
- Call the school office, and we will gladly send the item home with your student
Please note: Any items not claimed by the end of the day on Friday, May 1 will be donated.
Thank you for helping us clear things out and reunite these items with their rightful owners!
