Roosevelt School concluded its annual Holiday Drive last week and it was a tremendous success! Special thanks to all of our Roosevelt students, parents, and guardians for helping us all to realize that the true meaning of the Holidays is to “GIVE”, and GIVE you all did. Because of you, there will be people out there whose Holidays just turned around in a big way. Special thanks to the Shirley Thompson Christmas crew for, as always, helping us to make it all happen. Have a terrific Holiday Season everyone!!

"Roosevelt School’s Day of Service was in full effect this year as our students were busy, busy, busy! The Day of Service for our students consisted of cleaning up our parks (Pony Tail and Memorial Park), Rock Painting as part of the front of school beautification project, delivering lunches to the nurses at St. Peter’s Children’s Hospital, decorating and delivering freshly potted flowers to our Roosevelt School community neighbors, and beautifying our school grounds by pulling weeds, planting flowers and decorated rocks and laying fresh mulch to make it pop! As if this weren’t enough, our biggest event took place in the afternoon: The Color Run! This FUN fundraiser raised over $3200 dollars! This along with our earlier fundraisers, brings our grand total of fundraising for the Day of Service to be $5,863 dollars! This will be split in half ($2931.50 each) to our two fundraiser recipients: The Ronald McDonald House and South Plainfield Social Services! Our students definitely learned that Doing Good really does make you FEEL GREAT!!!" - Mr. Fierra
