Help Kick Off ROSE Foundation and Support Schools

Recognize Our Staff’s Excellence (R.O.S.E.) Foundation has a simple goal: we want to give grants to help schools create a sustainable and inclusive recognition program to help improve morale.

Steve Salski started this foundation because in all 30 years of him teaching, he has seen how dire the situation in the educational field has become. He knew that we needed to find ways to empower schools so school staff members are treated better. It’s not just about teachers, but also administrative staff that help schools stay organized and functional, the building maintenance staff who help with repairs and maintenance of school grounds, nurses who care for students' medical needs and ailments, paraprofessionals who support students and teachers, as well as the many other important staff members in various roles who often go unrecognized. All of these individuals impact students each and every day.

Programs that recognize all staff members in positive ways make individuals feel valued, respected, and appreciated, therefore creating a better culture and school community. Improving staff morale for all members of the school community is our goal toward better school experiences for all, especially the students.

In launching our nonprofit foundation, we need help kicking it off. In order to issue grants, we need funds to help the first schools in our nomination process create their recognition programs.

We aspire to raise $3,000 and need your help to reach our goal! We hope you will consider donating and supporting our foundation—even $5 will go a long way!
