Roosevelt Middle School of the Arts may be a specialty school for the arts, however, academics are highly emphasized. Teachers at Roosevelt are specialists in their fields. This is true not only in the arts but also in the academic areas. Roosevelt students have an English, Math, Science and Social Studies class every single day.
Roosevelt students are involved in many activities such as rehearsals and music lessons, which may occur during the school day. When students have missed a class for a performance or lessons, students must check with their teachers and make up the missed class work.
