Roosevelt Reader
September 11, 2020
PRINCIPAL'S CORNER
I want to officially welcome everyone to the start of the 2020-21 school year! We have 690 students total with about 40 new students and families to Roosevelt. Despite this unique beginning, our "remote learning" is working, and we will continue to make adjustments along the way.
Our school mission at Roosevelt is for this large school to "feel small". Please email your classroom teacher first if you have any questions or concerns. They can answer most things for you. However, I am happy to work with you on any matters as well.
Dr. Olson will be sharing an update on our plans for the school year on Monday, September 14. Please look out for his email message to all families.
Have a great day!
Dr. Dwyer, Principal
Inspire every child to discover, learn, achieve, and care.
NEWS BULLETIN
Supply Pick Up Day! Monday, September 14 (South gym, Door 11)
On Monday, parents can pick up supplies from 8:00am to 6:00pm in the South gym.
If you could return the plastic bag with the student label that you have at home, we would appreciate it. This will be helpful for us to use if we need future pick up days.
The pick up process will be the same we used in August. Please wear a mask and practice your social distancing. Also, we will not assign a time for any families, so just stop by the South gym when it is most convenient for you to do so.
Please save the plastic bags and labels we provide you for any future pick up or drop off events. This will help us to save the cost on these materials. Also, if you have an item to drop off with the teacher, we will have a box in the South gym for you to do this.
Thanks for your partnership!
