🎨 Celebrating Our Three School Rules! 🏆

Earlier this school year, our 6th-grade students put their creativity to work in Social Studies by designing beautiful posters illustrating Roosevelt’s Three School Rules:

🌟 Take Care of Yourself
🤝 Take Care of Each Other
🏫 Take Care of Our School

Many of these outstanding posters are now proudly displayed throughout our cafeteria, helping bring these important values to life each day.

While we were incredibly impressed by all of the creativity and effort, one poster truly went above and beyond! After careful deliberation, we are excited to recognize our winning team for their exceptional design, creativity, and representation of what it means to be a member of the Roosevelt community.

🎉 Congratulations to our winning team! 🏆👏
