School Mission
The purpose of Roosevelt Academy is to challenge, guide, and prepare students for future success in and out of the work place through an integrated, hands-on curriculum tailored to individual needs.
Roosevelt Academy is an Exceptional Student Education (ESE) school of choice, Pre-K and grades 6-12, specifically designed to teach and train students with learning disabilities to adapt and excel in society. Students learn and develop skills necessary to identify and make career choices and real-world decisions. It is our goal to prepare our students to become successful, contributing, tax-paying citizens by graduation.
