Learn the results of the Healthy Youth Survey
Tuesday, April 16 | 7pm | Zoom passcode 945640 (This meeting will be online-only)
Our meetings are open to everyone! This is a great way to learn more about RHS and meet people that make up the community. Find the full schedule for the year on the RHS PTSA website. We can’t wait to meet you!
This month's meeting will feature a presentation on Roosevelt's Healthy Youth Survey results. Lisa Davidson, Manager of Prevention and Intervention at SPS, will present Roosevelt's results from the 2023 Washington Healthy Youth Survey. This survey is administered every two years to 6th, 8th, 10th, and 12th graders across WA State. The survey covers a wide range of topics including drug and alcohol use, mental health, violence and safety, and physical activity. You won't want to miss this informative presentation. A recording of the presentation will be posted afterward for anyone unable to attend.
Presentations from High School Information Night available
If you missed last month's informative night of presentations, or were hoping to refer back to some of that night's materials, the decks are now available for download. Thanks again to the staff and volunteers who made that night a success!
Monthly drop-in chat with RHS PTSA leadership
Here's your chance to have an informal chat with Roosevelt PTSA leadership outside of a regular Board meeting. Come with concerns, comments, ideas, or just to meet new people. Drop by at any time during the hour, or stay for the whole thing. Chats will occur at different times every month - some over Zoom and some in-person at Caffe Ladro.

MEMBERSHIP MATTERS!
Membership is the only way we raise funds each year. Dues are critically important in helping us do our work building a stronger Roosevelt community.
Our PTSA, in coordination with the Washington State PTA and National PTA, is strongly involved in advocacy on behalf of children and families, working together to amplify the voices of historically marginalized community members, including Black, Indigenous, People of Color, and LGBTQ+ , as well as families of all religious traditions, families experiencing homelessness or disabilities, and families with special education needs. We seek to provide opportunities for diverse groups to learn from each other, and design new programs to support everyone in our community.
