Principal's Weekly Letter
The best thing about last week is that I had an opportunity to spend a lot of time with students. Early in the week I was interviewed by two RHS student journalists, Patty Pavon who is writing a story on small schools and Norma Briseno who is writing a story on school uniforms.
All Roosevelt High School students will graduate having met the state standards and having prepared for a highly skilled career and/or a four-year college or university.
