Roosevelt Elementary School

Call Directions Website

Roosevelt Elementary School During the 2007-08 school year Roosevelt started a Project-Based Learning (PBL) pilot program with a PBL class at each grade level.

Roosevelt School, a TK-5 neighborhood school, is rooted in a tradition of excellence and delivers a 21st century education based on critical thinking, problem-solving, using technology, and working together. On March 24, 2010, the district’s school board voted to expand PBL into a school-wide program for all classes and all grades beginning in 2010-11. PBL organizes curriculum, instruction and assessment around carefully crafted “problems” students are challenged to solve. Students gather and apply knowledge from multiple disciplines in their quest for solutions.

A little peek into art class at Roosevelt! 🎨

Art gives students time to explore ideas, try new techniques, and create something uniquely their own. We love seeing their creativity take shape!

Art at Roosevelt is supported by Prop 28! We’re thankful to our community for supporting arts education and giving students more opportunities to learn, create, and express themselves. ❤

Last Tuesday, we were delighted to welcome RCSD Superintendent Dr. Rubalcaba to Roosevelt! He greeted students, met with teachers and families, and shared the experiences and beliefs that have shaped his approach to education.

Families had the chance to share what they love about Roosevelt and their hopes for how the district can continue to support our school. Thank you, Dr. Rubalcaba, for spending time with our community and listening to the people who make Roosevelt such a special place. 💙
