Tailgate canceled, meeting still on. Roosevelt Tailgate on 9-28-2019; RCC meeting 10-1-2019 (Tuesday) at 4:30 pm

WE HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT THE TAILGATED SCHEDULED FOR SATURDAY, 9-28, HAS BEEN CANCELED.

This Saturday, Sept. 28th, was scheduled as Roosevelt's Homecoming game. The team's opponent has forfeited, but there will be a Homecoming event - a Tailgate - at the school from 11 AM until 1 PM. Coach Porter posted on Twitter: "This will serve as an opportunity for our players, school, and community to come together in fellowship. We will have food and merchandise on site." The school is located at 3230 Hartford Street, at the intersection of Compton and Hartford.

Also, we invite the community to attend our Roosevelt Community Council meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 1st, at 4:30 pm at the school in Room 102. Several of our RCC members just attended a workshop on Racial Equity provided by the Forward Through Ferguson organization, and we will be "reporting out" about the workshop as well as our usual agenda. There is parking on the Compton side of the building, then walk around to the main entrance on the Hartford side to enter through security. Meetings normally last about an hour.

About 85% of the students at Roosevelt are eligible for the school's free or reduced price meal program during the school week, but there are no such meals on Saturdays. The RCC began supporting the breakfasts about 8 years ago , when Mr. Terry Houston, then principal, asked us to provide volunteers for the breakfasts. The breakfasts were his idea: they are a way to both support the team and connect the community to the school. The volunteers help set up, help serve, and clean up after the breakfasts. Currently, the RCC raises the funds for the breakfasts, hires the caterer to provide the food, and recruits the volunteers. We held a fundraiser in May at Riley's Irish Pub in Tower Grove East to raise funds for the breakfasts. The balance of the funds comes from donations. The caterer is Euylan Welch of WelchOne Catering. We al
