Welcome to the beginning of the school year, Roosevelt Raccoons! This newsletter is here to ease you into the school year and provide information to help you navigate all the wonderful things our school community does throughout the year.
What is the Roosevelt PTA?
The Roosevelt School Parent Teacher Association (PTA) funds programs like art, music, and garden, makes investments in our campus like our new upper campus playground, and builds community through hosting school events throughout the year. All Roosevelt parents and guardians are welcome to join the PTA. Joining is a commitment-free annual membership and simply signals support and earns you voting rights at monthly meetings. Join here. Membership is not required to attend meetings or volunteer.
Maze Day follow up
It was wonderful to see so many familiar and new faces at this week’s Maze Day! If we missed you, there is still plenty of time to donate to the annual Enrichment Fund here, and learn more about corporate matching here.
