The Fall Fun Has Begun!
Dear Friends of our Roosevelt Community,
Fall has arrived and the students and staff have already started participating in exciting grant funded activities! The Kindergarten and 1st grade students enjoyed a trip to Von Thun Farm, where they learned about daily life and food production on the farm, met friendly barnyard animals and picked apples and potatoes to bring home!
We are ecstatic to share that the “Visiting Artist Program” (VAP) grant was approved for the 2026-2027 school year. This program will kick off in the next few weeks and feature Roosevelt community artists, who will share their passion and knowledge of their craft with our students. Please view the Grant Activities Page for more information and updates regarding the VAP.
We are excited to share that RPSEF has launched its first fundraiser for the 2026-2027 school year, see the flyer on this page and the Events & Fundraising Page for more information. Order by October 22, 2026!
It is shaping up to be an incredible school year, with a variety of grant activities already approved! We anticipate a wealth of novel, captivating learning opportunities for the RPS students, including field trips to the farm, the State Theatre, Nature Center, and an interactive Young Audiences Assembly Program! We also look forward to grant funds supporting another year of Theater Club after an extremely successful first year where students explored script reading, character development, stage presence, set and production elements, and behind-the-scenes crew responsibilities. Be sure to check our Facebook page for updates! These activities are all made possible through the generous donations and participation of our community. We thank you for your ongoing contributions and support!
