Roosevelt Rough Riders

December 2023: Hello Rough Riders! My name is Steve Moore and I have the honor and privilege of being the Activities Director at Sioux Falls Roosevelt High School. Roosevelt High School is an amazing place to grow and develop as a young person. Extra-curricular activities greatly enhance the educational experience for students, and at Roosevelt we have many, many opportunities for students to get involved in such activities. The purpose of this newsletter is to inform the Roosevelt School Community of a few of the happenings and opportunities that exist here at Roosevelt High School. If you or someone you know would like to be involved in an extra-curricular opportunity at Roosevelt, please contact us in the Roosevelt Activities Office. We would love to help. Thank you. GO RIDERS!!!!

The locations we are supporting this holiday season include Veterans Community Project, LifeScape, and our very own RHS building (RHS closet and pantry). RHS clubs are purchasing LifeScape gifts and students are asked to donate money or gently used Rider spirit wear during ad room this week. Students and staff can also dress-up during the week -

• Monday - PJ day
• Tuesday - Jersey day
• Wednesday - Class colors (Freshmen-purple, Sophomores- blue, Juniors- green , Seniors - red , Staff- ugly holiday sweaters)

• Thursday - "Twinning" - Pick a friend and dress alike!
• Friday - RHS Spirit wear (dress in your RHS club wear or "We are One" shirts!)

With such a busy time of year, we hope our community can help support those in need. Student council thanks you for all of your help and generosity!
