“Today the School, Tomorrow the World. Global Education for a Global Society”
Welcome Class of 2020!
As we embark on another school year, I want to take this opportunity to say how
excited and proud I am to be the Administrator for the Junior and Senior class at
Theodore Roosevelt High School. I am equally excited to work alongside Ms. Flowers,
Ms. Green, Ms. Lum, Mrs. Rodriguez- Leon, and Mrs. Harris- Woodard who will serve as
the Class of 2020 Sponsors.
Class of 2020 new and exciting opportunities will take place and this will be your year
with “A VISION” towards your future. In the words of Bernajoy Vaal “Millions of people
can believe in you, and yet none of it matters if you don’t believe in yourself.” Before
you know your senior year will be here and you will be graduating. Take this year to
become laser-focused on your classes, community service, and choosing your
pathway. As we continue to embrace college and career readiness, Roosevelt High
School staff is eager to help you achieve your vision.
Parents, please join the Roosevelt Team in setting high expectations to support our
scholars’ vision. I encourage all parents to be involved, ask questions, meet with your
team, and be that listening ear for your child throughout this school year; so that our
students will rise to the occasion and be successful. Our theme for the class of 2020 is
“A CLASS WITH A VISION.” With your support and communication, we can help move
towards your child’s vision. The student handbook will be the first step in helping you
organize your thoughts and plans for your child’s future.
I look forward to the Class of 2020 working towards their vision with Respect, Integrity,
Determination, Empowerment, Responsibility, and Success.
“Never Given, Always Earned!”

Assistant Principal- 11th & 12th Grade
