SLPS Foundation "Ed Talk" January 12, 2016 at Roosevelt

By Norah
The St. Louis Public Schools Foundation held one of its "Ed Talk" programs at Roosevelt High School yesterday. The program was about the alignment between Roosevelt and district transformation strategies and the recommendations of the Ferguson Commission. Excellent program and presentations.

Change in Homecoming Game, Sept. 20, 2025 - vs. St. Pius X (Festus)

By
We received an update from the Athletic Director at Roosevelt re a change in the Sept. 20th Homecoming football game:  Due to tornado damage from the May 16th tornado, there has been a change in Roosevelt's Homecoming Game on September 20, 2025. The team will play St. Pius X High School (Festus) instead of Soldan High School.  The reason for this is that S oldan's students are moving to GatewaySTEM to attend classes this fall and their athletes will be participating with Gateway's students. Sumner's students will be attending classes at Miller Career Academy and participating in sports with them as well. This left us without an opponent for our celebration. I put out an all-points-bulletin to the area athletic director's for a "hail mary" in an effort to find an opponent to fill the opening in our schedule. I am happy to announce that St. Pius X (Festus) will be our opponent for our game on 9/20. Here's the updated game schedule:
