General Announcements:
- Pi day is TODAY!! We will celebrate Pi Day with a school wide pi memorization contest. If you want to participate show up in room 335 during lunch There will be prizes for the top three contestants.
- ASR is hosting a Leprechaun Trap Design Competition. Bring your best work to the ASR room on March 17th (St. Patrick’s Day) when it will then be displayed in the Commons during lunch. Students will vote for the best trap and the winner will be awarded a gift card! If you are interested in signing up, DM the ASR Instagram to pay the $5 and get working on your trap!
- Listen up riders, quick reminder — our staff lot is for staff only. Lately, the lot has been filled with more student cars than staff cars, which means our teachers– who show up early every day for us, and who also want to go out for lunch just like we do, have nowhere to park. We know street parking is a difficult thing no matter where you go in Seattle, but this is your reminder that we’ve worked with Diamond Parking and Calvary Christian Assembly to lower monthly parking passes from $180 to just $60 — which is about the same as a parking ticket, and about 3 hours of minimum wage work in Seattle. If you need a spot, this is a way better option than risking a fine or getting towed, it’s only a block away. If you’re driving to school, please respect our teachers and park where you’re supposed to. Thanks Riders!
- Enjoy a meal with family and friends this month and support the RHS Boys Ultimate Varsity Team at the same time!
- Have you heard the great news? The RHS Boys Ultimate Varsity Ultimate team will be competing in the Highschool Nationals Tournament for the first time ever! The tournament will be held this June in Pennsylvania. We’d love your support with our team’s fundraising efforts to help defray the tournament and travel costs while enjoying a nice meal in March. You can also help us by spreading the word about the dine-outs below, and don’t forget to mention that you would like your sale to go towards the Roosevelt Boys Ultimate fundraiser as noted below. Go Riders, thank you!
- Upcoming Fundraising Dine-Outs:
- Every Monday night in March: Magnuson Brewing dine-outs where they will donate 10% of sales every Monday night in March.
- Wednesday, March 26th: U-Village Chipotle dine out from 5-9pm, where they will donate 25% of sales. Only at the U-Village location and need to mention RHS Ultimate fundraiser when ordering.

Afterschool activities:
- There is a new tutoring program at Roosevelt high school called The Kennel Study Hall. All students are welcome to drop-in on Monday, Tuesday, and/or Thursday, from 4-6pm for general academic tutoring. We also provide appointments to meet with tutors before school starting at 7:30am, at lunch time, and extended hours for those that have extracurricular activities after school and need tutoring in evenings and/or during the weekends. We look forward to connecting with Roosevelt students to help them develop core competencies in their academic pursuit of excellence.
Getting help with your academics is as easy as 1-2-3.
- Request…a tutor by stopping by Room 103 at lunch time to sign-up for tutoring (or stop in during drop-in hours).
- Assess…your academic needs through meeting with an academic coach so we can provide “right-sized” academic support that aligns with your available time to meet.
- Attest…to the effectiveness of support through predictive analytics tracking and satisfaction surveys to ensure you’re not just getting support…you’re enjoying your learning journey with us.
