This is a great school. My youngest child is a current student. My older chilldren graduated from this school. It has changed a great deal over the years. The changes are good. Overall, the teachers are great, but all it takes is a few bad apples and Roosevelt has a few. Not as many as they use
... Read more to so it is getting better. Parent involvement is lacking. It appears that fundraising, teacher appreciation, etc. is the main reason that parents are needed. There are various committees that need parent reps but in the past they were generally filled with teachers that are parents. There are plenty of involved parents, they are just not on campus. Fundraising gets old. The athletic staff is much better. They expect more of their athletes (behavior & academic). Engineering magnet program is great. I hear good thing about the DATA magnet but no personal experience. Read less

This was my son's freshman year at Roosevelt and I must say that I was disappointed. There is a big lack of faculty involvement on that campus. To think that our kids spend the majority of their day at school the lack of supervision is concerning. The experiences I had showed that there were minimum

After going to Roosevelt for almost 2 years, I have to say that my experience there was about 95% great overall. Most of the people that go there have a naturaly friendliness and are always laughing. Yes there are a few exceptions to that, but any school you go to will have something similar. Most of
... Read more the teachers genuinely care about your acadmeic and personal life and their main goal is not only to get you to graduate, but to get you to college. The pre-ap/ ap courses are very challenging, but push you to better. I love the GT program at Roosevelt- you really get a good intellectual stimulation. Although Roosevelt has had a dark past, I truely believe that it looks nothing like it's future. The new prinicpal has done an amazing job of stirring Roosevelt in the right direction. I will always have Rough Rider Pride! Go TR! Read less

My sons attend the engineering magnet program at Roosevelt which is not our neighborhood high school. Although it means an extra commute during the school year, it has been well worth it. They love Roosevelt and are receiving an excellent education. There are many opportunities for student involvement
