September has come and gone.
Here is a recap of how September went:
Roosevelt got off to a wonderful start this September. Parents had the opportunity to meet their children's teachers at back to school night. Thank you for all who came.
Roosevelt got off to a wonderful start this September. Parents had the opportunity to meet their children's teachers at back to school night. Thank you for all who came.
All counselors met with 6th, 7th and 8th grade advisories to introduce themselves, explain who they are and what their roles are. Roosevelt will continue to focus on the importance of living together and interacting with one another in a safe way and respectful way.

Week of Respect
Week of Respect
The Anti-Bullying Bill of Rights Act (P.L.2010, c.122) requires that the week beginning with the first Monday in October of each year be designated as a “Week of Respect” in New Jersey. Throughout the week there will be activities that incorporate a message of respect and kindness, with personal uplifting messages, demonstrating pride in school, random helpful acts, smiling, and/or wearing various colored clothing to highlight the aspects of the week.
Week of Respect assists students in learning about how to respect others, our school, and our community. It promotes safe and healthy learning environments for all.
America's Safe School Awareness Week
America's Safe School Awareness Week
School Violence Awareness Week has been designated in New Jersey the week beginning the third Monday in October. School-wide activities are planned that promote peaceful co-existence, acceptance, and embracing our differences.
Red Ribbon Week
Red Ribbon Week
The purpose of Red Ribbon Week is to present a commitment to a safe, healthy and drug free lifestyle. The first Red Ribbon Week was proclaimed in 1988 by the US Congress in honor of Agent Camarena (who worked for the Drug Enforcement Administration and was undercover investigating a drug cartel in Mexico when he was kidnapped, tortured and then killed). The week is marked by the wearing of a red ribbon to send the message: live drug free!
