  • SEMESTER 2 Roosevelt Connections Crew Application!

  • Thanks for your interest in for the Connections Program!

    Connections Program in a Nutshell:

    Connections is a 1-year program (Academic year) that supports students in shaping a more inclusive and connected school community. Together, a diverse group of 15 dedicated students (Crew members) plan and facilitate activities for other students that promote inclusivity and a sense of belonging in their schools. Crew members develop leadership skills, make new friends, and leave a lasting impact on the Roosevelt High School community.

    The Connections Program has two stages: LEARNING & DOING.

    During the first stage, students learn about belonging, leadership, teamwork, allyship and antiracism through interactive workshops and field trip experiences. Then during the second stage they plan and lead inclusive activities for their peers.
