A Note From The Principal

Dear Roosevelt Families,

Welcome to the 2022-23 school year and to our Roosevelt School Family! I hope you had an enjoyable and fun summer while staying safe and healthy! The 2022-23 school year will begin in a few days and we are so excited to welcome all the students back into the building. It was wonderful seeing so many of you all at Get to Know You Conferences. I know I can speak for the entire Roosevelt staff when I say we are excited and ready to begin another great year of learning with all of our students and families!

Here is a link to our Roosevelt School Family Handbook. Also linked inside of there is the OASD COVID-19 2022-23 School Year Plan as well.

Just a few reminders: Each school day begins at 7:45am. Supervision on the black top begins at 7:30 but students should arrive as close to 7:40 as possible (but no earlier than 7:30am). Remember that the playground is off limits before school and it is not an active recess time with so many students out there at one time. Students should report right to their teacher designated line (look for signs the first two weeks to get in routine for where they are). Staff will be outside on the back playground greeting students/families and helping them find their teacher lines at the start of the day. You will be able to recognize staff members on the first day in mint colored Roosevelt t-shirts, so please let us know if you have any questions or need any help! The first bell will ring at 7:40 signaling for students to line up if they are not there yet. 

The school day ends at 2:45pm. Just a reminder that all families need to wait outside of the building for students as they will be dismissed by their teacher. Students in grades K-2 will be dismissed by their teacher through doors 6, 7 or 8 and walk to the front of the building on Sawyer Street to find their parent/pick up person. Students in grades 3-5 will be dismissed out doors 2 and 3 and walked around to Coolidge Street to find their parent/pick up person. Any students riding the bus or their bike will exit out door 2.

The Roosevelt Staff and I look forward to another successful school year of growing and learning together! We thank you for your continued support of our school and the students' learning this year. I wish you all the best at the start of the year! We will see you all on Thursday, September 1st for the first day of school! 

Sincerely,

Kristin Burgert, Principal
