The Yahoo Group…
Since we now have the online blog, I’ve made our Yahoo group private.  What that means is that only members can see content that is posted.

Also, please ask other Roosevelt parents if they are signed up for the Yahoo group and if they are getting the weekly updates.  If you find out that someone is signed up, but not receiving these emails, let me know and I can fix their account.

Keep checking the Parent Blog!
Make sure to bookmark our blog – www.rooseveltparents.com. This week I’ll be posting more information from teachers on what is happening in their classrooms in the “PBL in the Classroom” section. If you have any pictures that you would like to have included on the blog, please send them to me and I’ll be sure to post them.

Holidays ahead…
A reminder that Friday, February 18, Monday, February 21 and Tuesday, February 22 are all school holidays this year.

Save the Date…

Drug Awareness Night – February 28
An officer from the Sherrif’s department will be coming to Roosevelt for a presentation on drug awareness on Monday, February 28 from 6:30 – 8:30pm. Please note: because the officer will be bringing items associated with drugs, this is an adult only event, but childcare will be available in the Champions Room.

Expansion Committee at Board Meeting – March 9
The Expansion Committee will be presenting before the School Board on March 9 to ask that Roosevelt become a K-8 school.

Have a great week!
