Roosa Elementary

Roosa students know that the best way to start your day is with positive affirmations, lots of smiles, and some sweet dance moves! Happy friday, everyone! ***BONUS*** Be sure to ask your kiddos if they remember any of the fun and fancy ways Mrs. Hostler taught them to say "Merry Christmas!" #TodayisGoingtobe #AnAMAZINGday #MeleKalikimaka #RoosaRiseandShine #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Claremore's annual Christmas parade is coming soon! We can't wait to see the town lining Will Rogers Blvd on Saturday, December 9th at 6:00pm, to enjoy the twinkling lights, magical Christmas melodies, and general merriment, but don't forget our favorite part: our very own Roosa Royalty! Due to the large number of students who were caught displaying great character, it was decided that instead of one boy and one girl representing the whole school - we would nominate a boy and girl from each grade! The nominations are in and drawings have been completed!! I present to you the upstanding students representing Roosa this year! Great job to all! #RoosaRoyalty #ChristmasParade2023 #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

We hope that you're not sleeping, We hope that you're awake, Today's the day for goodness sake! Our K-2nd graders are itching to take the stage and put the holiday spirit in high gear!

Second grade, second grade, WHOOOO do you see? "I see a barn owl looking at ME!" A few very knowledgeable friends from the Tulsa Zoo stopped by and spent some time with second grade. Students were absolutely captivated by the lessons on animal coats and camouflaging, but the real thrill was when their little barn owl friend made an appearance! Thanks for stopping by, guys! hooooo Hoooooooo Whoooooooooo loves the zoo? WE DO!!! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Roosa, the holiday season is upon us, and we need your help! For the second year in a row, we have teamed up with Share the Spirit here in Rogers County to help serve our community. Here's where we need you: between today and December 16th, we need you to bring canned corn and green beans. Cans will be collected and tallied daily, and the winners will be announced at Rise and Shine, December 17th. The top classes from PreK-2nd and from 3rd-5th will earn an ice cream sandwich party and extra recess!! #SharetheSpirit #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

We are so very thankful for our SROs! School Resource Officers are so valuable and, while we don't like to play favorites, we know that Roosa's got the best one out there! In addition to traditional, expected officer duties, resource officers help to accquaint students who might be unfamiliar to the police in our community. By being present, Officer Hagen shows how helpful and appoachable our men and women in uniform really are, which can ease a lot of young minds! What better way to show approachability than helping to make snowflakes for the front office! Thanks for all you do, officers! #MayYourDaysBe #MerryandBright #RoosalovesourSRO #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Today's the Macy's Day Parade....but last week, 2nd grade put on a parade of their own! Spectacular balloons made their way through our hallways at the hands of some very creative students! Whatever the day brings you, we hope your day is full of thanks and surrounded by happiness. Happy Thanksgiving, Roosa families! We are so thankful for YOU! #ThanksgivingDay #Thankful4You #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

What a show, what a SHOW!! Spoiler alert: no planks were walked and our pirate-y crew managed to figure out their own talents AND found out they truly do have friends! Such a great job by all! #Pirates2 #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

At our fall carnival a few weeks back, you spoke and we listened! The votes were tallied and it was decided that Mr. Crum needed a pie in the face - and who better to make it happen than Mrs. Willard! Way to get a head start on that pumpkin pie, Mr. Crum! #HappinessIs . . . #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

We're not sure if he's manifesting a moment of peace or dreaming of turkey and all the fixin's, Whichever it is, he can rest easy! It's break time and turkey will be here before we know it! Enjoy the next week, do fun things, relax, and make some memories! Just know we can't wait to see your smiling faces when you come back on the 27th! #ThanksgivingBreak in 3. . .2. . 1. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Paging Mrs. Peters' class to the OR, STAT! 3rd grade performed some major exploratory surgeries and discovered the text feature each patient needed, in order to lead-or should I say READ a good story and appreciate every detail available! All "patients" were expertly patched up and matched with the proper feature. As for this crew of attending 3rd graders: the prognosis is good that they will remember text features and how to use them for a long time to come! #3rdGradeKnowsHowToOperate #TextFeatureFun #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

We are quickly coming up on 5th grade's visit to Biztown! JA Biztown is brought to us by Junior Achievement USA as a fun and interactive way to let students experience the "real world." There, students will be able to run their business and see the impact they have as a worker, a town citizen, and consumer. Before they even get to Biztown, they must run elections, and interview for the jobs they will hold, and boy, did these kids give it their all!

What a day to honor our veterans! Fifth grade arranged an amazing assembly showcasing each grade and their love and admiration for our Veterans! There was even a surprise visit from some former Roosa kiddos who will be walking across the stage at graduation in a few short months! We hope our guests could feel the love throughout the presentation and reception that followed and know that we appreciate you each and every day! #RoosalovesourVets #OnceaRoosaKid #AlwaysaRoosaKid #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
