WHAT'S GOING ON AT SCHOOL
Teddies rocked the Inspire conference in medicine, science and engineering last month! They learned about ways that science and tech are being used to improve people’s lives from intervention with mental illness, to prevention of substance abuse relapse by rewiring the brain. They showed off their critical thinking skills by asking practical questions and represented Roosevelt well! Nice work Teddies!!
REPEATS
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.

By doing this you are helping give scholarships to Roosevelt students and grants to staff without it costing you a penny?

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

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.
