S.T.E.M. EDUCATION
Science, Engineering, Math and Technology, known as S.T.E.M. is project based educational curriculum, that enables students to learn about these areas through a hands on approach. S.T.E.M. education creates critical thinkers, increases science literacy, and enables the next generation of innovators. Innovation leads to new products and processes that sustain our economy. It provides our student the opportunity to develop an understanding of S.T.E.M. topics by using standards-based, structured, inquiry-based, and real world problem-based learning, S.T.E.M. programs are designed to help students succeed in this new information-based and highly technological society.
Robotics is offered in our after school ASES program, for 4th and 5th grade students. Students in the upper grades have had opportunities to engage in S.T.E.M. related topics during Saturday Academy. More S.T.E.M. Programs will be opening up for students soon.

Student Council
The Roosevelt Rams' Student Council focuses on involving students in positively shaping the school culture and climate. Fourth and fifth grade students learn to conduct a formal meeting as they serve as officers. There are numerous sub-committees (Wellness Committee, Student Support Committee, Social Events and Activities) which allows students in grades 3 through 5 to offer their unique strengths and skills to serve the learning community. Teachers serve as mentors to support student officers, as well as each subcommittee, in putting ideas into action. Each 3rd through 5th grade classroom has a teacher assigned advisor, providing further opportunities for the student-body.

Marathon Kids Program
Roosevelt Received a grant from the Nike Marathons Kids Program, which has provided Ram Mile Club Members with awards and prizes for completing marathons, 26.2 Miles. Students receive a Marathon Kids T-Shirt that shows they completed the equivalent amount of miles it takes to complete a marathon, 26.2 miles. They receive shoe laces, and other Nike products for each additional marathon they complete.
UNICEF SCHOOL KIDS POWER PROGRAM
The first 30 students to complete 26.2 miles doing laps through the Ram Mile CLUB, earn Fit Kids Power bands, which is a watch and step calculator. The more active the students are the more food packets we can earn for the UNICEF Program, to feed children in third world country. The more our students move, the more lives they are saving. This program is a great opportunity for our students to have a positive global impact.
