BEAR Talk
May 2024
From the Desk of Mrs. Schrag,
Roosevelt Bears,
Our last newsletter! How has this happened? What a year this has been! Joining the Bear family has been such a wonderful transition. To see the high level of educators work with these amazing students has been an incredibly rewarding experience. I truly believe RES Bears are in the best hands with the teachers and support staff we have here at Roosevelt.
As a community, you have been quick to help, eager to support and engage in your children's learning. We couldn't thank you enough.
Coming up this week we have teacher appreciation. To celebrate these wonderful teachers, I ask you to be on the lookout for a flyer in your child's back pack from me sharing some of your teacher's favorite things. If you would like to support them on those days, we will be giving some things they love out to families. On Facebook we will include not only classroom teachers but specials teachers, reading teachers etc. We are excited to spend the week celebrating the true heroes in this building.
Thank you again for making 2023-2024 an amazing school year. Have a great summer and enjoy the last few weeks of school.
Mrs. Schrag
