Office means work Changes in tally as well as a change in personnel broke into the routine of the administration during the 1985 6 school year. Instead of having a full day for tally. Roosevelt had to condense its tally time to a half day in order to reserve the remainder of the day for other activities such as consultant meetings and teacher-parent conferences. This was accomplished by having 40% of the seniors and 20% of the underclassmen pre-register during the weeks before tally day. This was done by the counselors. The new face in the administration belonged to John Bell, the assistant principal who replaced Danny Gomez last fall. Bell was in charge of discipline involving students in the last third of the alphabet. Keith Olsen served in his fifth year as principal at RHS, continuing the tradition of stability. Olsen is only Roosevelt’s fifth principal in 63 years. John Bostad and Ruth Schultz were back as assistant principals. This Page: Top: Seated: Evelyn Johnson. Martha Meehan. Standing: Lois Young.

A.P. Social Studies added All social studies returned to RHS last fall with the addition on the new course for juniors: Advanced Placement U.S. History. Social studies, being a required class, was taken by everyone. The new course, however, was taught by Kay Dietl and was offered to juniors with a strong grade point average and a keen interest in history. Hopefully it will be expanded and available to more students next year,” said Dietl. She added, “It has been a challenge to both the teacher and students. Some seniors were relieved to find that they did not have to take the same social studies class all year. The choice of economics, government, psychology or street law added variety to their year.
