Ensuring Equity: Roosevelt is committed to ensuring equity for all students. We are working as a family to educate ourselves on
content that will help us to keep this commitment to our students, community and colleagues. Here are some of the resources we
are working through. We encourage you to grow and learn with us:
• Ensuring Equity for All Students
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjrFnmeGtL8
• Equity vs Equality
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCS7Rus4_-Y
Diversity Sensitivity Reminders: Equal and equitable treatment of people irrespective of color of their skin, gender, age, sexual
orientation is critical to the continuous achievement and growth of our nation. We are cognizant that we need to be aware of our
own biases whether conscious or subconscious. This helps us to ensure that we are addressing the needs of our students,
colleagues, and community without partiality. Impartiality is a conscious effort until it becomes second nature. We will continue
to work together to ensure that we stay sensitive to our diverse population both in house and throughout of community. Here are
a few resources that can assist in this journey.
• Stay up to date on matters that have impacted people of color.

VISITING THE SCHOOL
Parents are welcome to visit the school to volunteer or have lunch with your child.
You must first sign in at the front office and print a visitor’s badge. This is for the
protection of all. Parents who wish to eat lunch with their child will sit with their child
at our designated visitor’s table.
EARLY CHECKOUT PROCEDURES
In an effort not to interrupt your child’s education, appointments should be made after
school hours if possible. If a student is to be checked out early, a note should be sent
to the teacher in advance. Students will be called to the office once the parent or an
authorized person signs him/her out. Students will ONLY be released to the parent or
an authorized person whose name is on file. Due to security and dismissal
procedures, parents are encouraged NOT to request early check out prior to normal
daily dismissal. To avoid disrupting the end of day procedures, necessary early
