ANNOUNCEMENT
COVID-19 ATTENDANCE GUIDE FOR PARENTS AND FAMILIES
"At first I thought IBCP would be complicated for me. Hearing that I was going to write a paper with 3,000 words was shocking! I never thought I could do it. If you find a good topic that interests you, or a topic that relates to your future career you can do it. Never be scared of trying new challenges like these one. Also, it's a great opportunity to meet new people that you haven't met before. If I completed the IBCP, then YOU can also complete it. There were times when I did feel stressed because of time. I did leave some of the things to sit there and then came back to them later. I think that was one of the bad things I did, because all the work accumulated. The IBCP means so much to me because the IBCP is where I confirmed that I want to be a NURSE MIDWIFE! Also, it means so much to be because in some way it helped me be more confident, and being less shy. The IBCP has taught me to accept challenges, try new things, and never give up, because everything is possible!"


Congratulations Rozana Sosa '20 on receiving the IBCP Certificate! Good luck with your studies at Concordia College!

Would you like to help give scholarships to Roosevelt students and grants to staff without it costing you a penny? Do you ever shop at Amazon?  

Instead of going to amazon.com, go to smile.amazon.com. Register and select Minneapolis Theodore Roosevelt High School Foundation as your charity. Each time you shop at smile.amazon the Foundation will receive a small percentage of your purchase.

You just have to remember to go to smile.amazon.com instead of Amazon…..same merchandise, same prices, same service. Thank YOU!

20 hours of Service
Per year is expected of every student, every year. 

Here are a couple ideas to get you started:
Clean your house or make dinner (make sure that includes cleaning up) without being asked.
Cut the grass.
Offer to cut the neighbors grass.
Walk around for an hour in your neighborhood and pick up trash. Remember to wear gloves and BE CAREFUL.
Spend an hour creating a chalk mural or message on your sidewalk to brighten someone's day.

Check out these websites to come up with another idea.
  1. https://www.volunteermatch.org/search?l=Minneapolis%2C+MN%2C+USA
(You can search by word, so if you are looking for an "art" based volunteering opportunity, or a "children" based opportunity, "senior citizen", etc.


If you have questions before that, please email Christol.Schultz@mpls.k12.mn.us.

If your student is doing their hours OUTSIDE of the school, please have them send in a paper that is signed, dated and phone number listed for the organization or person that they helped.
