Roosevelt High School - Rough Rider Yearbook (Washington, DC)

Page 14 text:

Some ot the busiest people here at Roosevelt are our assistant prin- cipals and our counselors. Their desks are eternally piled high with work but they are always willing to be interrupted in order to lend an ear and a helping hand. The assistant principals, as you can see, are happily endowed to counsel students and encourage them to overcome their problems. The main work of our coun- selors, in this room at the left, is programming. Miss Stevens helps plan the schedules of lovver-semes- ter students and takes charge of standardized and special tests given at Roosevelt. Mr. Myers, in addi- tion to preparing schedules for the upper-semester students, is Chair- man of the College Bureau and handles student iob requests.

471 SJ X! 1.2 Officers President Mrs. Fanny Weissberg Vice President .Mrs. Lenora Drew Secretary Mrs. Leona Cobb Treasurer Mrs. Louise Montague The members of the Home and School Association meet several times a year for a closer under- standing between parents and teachers. They contribute to a li- brary fund for book bindings and a needy-student fund. This year they enabled the school to purchase new risers for Choir use and needed furnishings for a faculty lounge. Here you see some of them sitting in class as each parent followed his child's schedule on 'Back to School' night, when teachers explained the courses of study.
