Program Description:
Within an odd/even day schedule, Roosevelt balances scholastic excellence with a wide choice of electives and exploration. On Oregon State Assessment Tests, students score at the top of all 4J middle schools. Our WEB (Where Everybody Belongs) program trains 8th grade leaders to orient all students new to Roosevelt. The heart of our school is the library. Our full-time media specialist manages collections in English and French. Our comprehensive counseling and special education services offer a wide range of support to all students.
School Highlights:
  • The HOUSE/Advisor system is a critical component of the RMS program; each teacher advises approximately 23 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students for their three year career at Roosevelt
  • Student choice is the hallmark of Roosevelt; student, parents, and advisors collaborate to create a comprehensive schedule to insure each student's success
  • Fine and Applied Arts are a must at Roosevelt; we offer art, drama, band, orchestra, and choir in all grades; our annual Bard Fest culminates in three Shakespeare classes and the spring musical includes over 130 students
  • We are part of the district's French Immersion Program. Fifth graders transition to us from Charlemagne at Fox Hollow and go on to South Eugene High School within the International High School (IHS) program
  • Most core classes blend 7th and 8th graders; 6th graders are welcomed through the WEB program.Their curriculum features the Cultural Connections Block, highlighted by the Immigration Simulation and the Cultural Festival
School Improvement Goals:
  • Close our achievement gap by improving literacy levels to meet or exceed OSAT benchmarks in reading, science, writing, and math
  • Work with the Multicultural Committee to develop a safe, inclusive, and joyful environment
