If we do not receive a call, we will attempt to call the parents

student is tardy three times consecutively or continues to be late
on a regular basis, they will be referred to the school counselor for
appropriate action.
Emergency Care for Ill or Injured Children
If a child becomes ill or injured at school, every reasonable effort is
made to care for them. If the parent, the listed responsible friend,
relative, neighbor, or the physician cannot be reached, the child will be
taken to the emergency room or an emergency care center of the hospital
listed on the child's school records, or from the recommendation of the
nurse in the doctor's office. TULSA PUBLIC
SCHOOLS DO NOT ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PAYMENT OF HOSPITAL OR
DOCTOR'S FEES.
Medication
Tulsa Public
School permits administration of medication during the school day only
with written directions from the physician
and the parent. If your physician feels it is necessary to
administer medication during school hours, you will need to fill out a
"Authorization for the Administration of Medication by Designated
School Personnel". All medications must be brought to the nurse's
office in prescribed containers. All medication should be delivered to
the school nurse by a parent or guardian.
Children are not to transport medication. If you have any
questions, call the Roosevelt Health Clerk at 833-8970.

Breakfast will start at 7:35 a.m.
Lost and
Found
Lost and found clothing items are located in the cafeteria. Other items

Code of
Conduct
Good discipline is the key to a healthy, happy learning environment.
Proper behavior, cooperation, respect for others and self-discipline are
critical elements of a student's educational development. Contact the
Office for a copy of the "Rights and
Responsibilities" pamphlet. Continuous disruptive behavior and
willful refusal to accomplish school tasks, insubordination, disorderly,
vicious, illegal or immoral conduct and persistent violation of school
regulations are causes for suspension.
The rules, regulations,
procedures and disciplinary actions are further outlined in the
Tulsa Public
School Code of Student Conduct
(copies are available in the school office).
Special
Progress Reports and Report Cards
Student Progress reports will be sent to parents the fifth (5th) week of
each nine (9) week quarter if a student is making
unsatisfactory progress. Parents are requested to sign the
report and return it to school the following day. This is our way of
knowing that you received the report.
Report cards are
issued eight (8) days following the end of the first quarter. Parents are
requested to sign these and return to the record teacher the following
day.
Dress
Code and Grooming Guidelines
Roosevelt students will be in uniform dress code for the 2007-08 school year. They
