Roosevelt middle school where shall I start. I actually went to this school. I'm 32 now. And my seven siblings also went here. Now it's my daughter's first year. It's a big difference from when I went. And especially these 10 yrs approx that mr. Principal Hong has been there. Has been positive energy. And he's always available to hear us parents out. He also has such a great staff behind him. Whom truly care for Roosevelt. Don't let the bad rep fool you. And don't listen to what everyone says. See for your self. Roosevelt is thriving and trying to just go up and up. As long as parents stay vocal as well. And try to be positive and give your feedback because they want to know. Also the teachers so far that I've dealt with for my daughter. There just the best. Shout out to Ms. Toumi, Brooks, Allison, samana, bell, I love them all. They are all dedicated teachers. And I'm glad my daughter has such great support from. Her teachers. I can't wait to see more positive from Roosevelt. Every school h as s good and bads but I feel the good out weighs the bad for sure. Thanks Roosevelt for the great year start off so far.

Our family has been a part of SEED since 2019. We have two students who are english first speakers learning spanish in an immerson enviornment. Teachers are dedicated, have been with the school for years, some 15-20 years, each grades teachers collectively and cohesively plan and coordinate learnings and cirriculum. I have found information for parents to be available and I have felt my child was supported and genuinely cared for, identifying their strenghts and guiding them to personal achievement There is a parent PTA with as many parents as schedules and free time bandwitch allows. There are school fun fundraisers for families about every quarter. I would highly recommend SEED to nearby Oakland families. We currently have a second and forth grader.

Teachers are generally compassionate and demonstrate cultural sensitivity to the needs of all students. The linked learning program is moving in a positive direction and their tailored Newcomer program helps English language learners succeed. I'm encouraged to learn that their internship program has tripled over the last 3 years. There currently is a construction project on site, which includes a new 2 story building, updated on-site clinic and a new stadium/gym to replace their current 90yd football field. The project is expected to be complete by winter of 2020.
