Great teachers and staff. I've noticed how much Playworks Coach "Nick" has made an impact in my kid's life as well as other students especially when he left to do his duty for the army. Coach Max also stands out as well for he has been the PE coach there for a very long time. As a single mother both these men have been a great role model to my child. Definitely recommend this school. As for the teachers, they are very friendly and welcoming! They are more than happy to help you discuss any question you have in a formal manner.

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.

My son has been going to this school since kindergarten. It has a high teacher-parent involvement, and save for a couple of not very good teachers, the rest have proven to be really good, engaging and motivating. It is a plus that this is a bilingual school. The environment is safe and inclusive. The facilities are ample and clean.

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.
