REEF is a nonprofit PTO dedicated to raising money from parents and the community to support the growing needs of our students, teachers and staff. Our mission is to fund positions, programs and materials not paid for by the district or state in a way that improves the educational experience for every child at Roosevelt.

Through a joint effort with the teachers, principal, parents/guardians, and REEF, Roosevelt sponsors curriculum specialists at all grade levels as well as social emotional programming. REEF also supports Read with Roosevelt, cultural arts, arts education, TK/Kinder Connection and more. Several self-funded programs are also administered by volunteers for the benefit of our students, for example: Fall Ball, Yearbook, and Science Night.
Meetings are generally held one Monday of each month at 5:30pm in the library. Attending the first REEF meeting, when the budget is discussed, is the best way to learn more about the special programs and events that are paid for by REEF. Please join us and participate! Check our calendar for an up to date schedule.
Every parent, guardian, teacher, and staff member registered to Roosevelt is a Member of REEF. Members vote on the election of the board members and the approval of the annual budget. Members have other rights as described in the REEF Bylaws.
The membership votes annually in the spring on the election of the Directors. The Directors (a.k.a. Board Members) oversee the day-to-day operation of the PTO guided by the interests of our families, staff, and community.
