Good Evening Roosevelt International Middle School Families:
Dr. Casillas here with your weekly school update.
School picture day is tomorrow, September 21st. If your family elects to purchase a picture package, please bring the picture day envelope that was included in the back to school paperwork. Speaking of back to school paperwork, students brought home a packet of important school information. Please read, review, sign, and return the required school forms to your student’s first period teacher.
Roosevelt’s celebration of Peace One Day has been rescheduled to this Friday, September 25th. To prepare for this day, students have been practicing their Waka Waka dance. On Friday, all students will be provided with a Peace One Day t-shirt courtesy of RooFriends, our Foundation.
Parents, we need your help. Traffic around the school has become increasingly busy and dangerous. We are asking for all drivers to adhere to all traffic laws when picking up children: driving at safe speeds, no stopping in the red zone, no double parking in the middle of the street and yielding to pedestrians. Students should walk in designated cross walks and cross when safe. As Upas Street is used for the loading of our nine school buses, we are encouraging all drivers to utilize Zoo Drive for pick up to alleviate traffic on Upas. We need everyone’s assistance in keeping everyone safe and to eliminate any potential accidents between busses, cars and pedestrians.
And another reminder, school dismissal time is 2:28pm and 1:24pm on Tuesdays. If your student is not attending Prime Time, please ensure they have a plan to go home immediately afterschool as there is no supervision on campus after 2:45 pm.
If you are interested in serving on our School Site Council (SSC) and/or our School Governance Team (SGT), please complete the nomination form found in the Back to School packet and also attached to this email. Nominations are due this week.
Coffee & Tea with Dr. C is scheduled for this Friday in the Library beginning at 7:30. Please join us for an informal chat about Roosevelt.
Have a great week of learning Rough Riders.
Always do your best by working hard and making good choices.
Until next time, good bye and good night.
