A Message from Principal Steinberger (bsteinberger@sandi.net)
“What a successful First Day of School! Seeing all of your children filled me with joy. I saw many smiles peek out from under their masks. As a reminder, masks are required to be worn inside and outside, except when eating lunch outside. After a long wait, it is nice to have Day One complete. Thank you for helping us start off the year with Roosevelt PRIDE!”
