(2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I am a Roosevelt alumni, class of 2009. Roosevelt needs better security and to cut down on how many kids there are. I recently went back to pick up my transcripts and I was in shock. All 3 tracks were in and the school was packed w/ students!!! This school year Roosevelt quit being year round and started w/ this 7 school program. Huge mistake =/
