Welcome to our school!
Welcome to Roosevelt Elementary School—a school where students are engaged in
their own learning,
held to high expectations by all staff and provided with a challenging
curriculum that allows all students opportunities to excel in academics. We are proud of our ability to meet the
academic and social needs of all students while fostering lifelong
relationships between staff and families.
Academically,
last year was
an impressive year for our students. Roosevelt
students continued to excel on the Idaho Reading Indicator (IRI). In
the third
grade, 95.8 percent of our students read at or above grade level in the
spring
of 2009, the highest percentage in the Boise School
District.
In
addition, 94 percent of Roosevelt
fourth graders scored a three or higher on the State Direct Math
Assessment, and
fifth graders were equally impressive on the State Direct Writing
Assessment,
with 95.8 percent scoring a three of better—an increase of 18 percent
over the
last four years!
On
the Idaho Standards
Achievement Test (ISAT), Roosevelt
students
excelled in all tested areas. Below are the percentages of our students
in
grades three through six who scored proficient or above on the Spring
2009
ISATs.
As
you can see, Roosevelt is a school
dedicated to making sure its students
are prepared for the secondary level of school and life beyond.
We
thank all of you who help
ensure that Roosevelt offers a
quality
education, and we encourage you to come see the wonderful things
happening at
our school.
Sincerely,
JuliAnne
Bronner, Principal
