Roosevelt Charter Academy

RCA is a part of Kids on Bikes and the Bike Library program for our older students. The students have enjoyed the Bike Library; however, many students who want to be part of this after-school program have no bike riding skills. All Kids Bike will allow us to teach our younger students how to ride so they can eventually be a part of the Bike Library. We are looking forward to growing a program that inspires a lifelong recreational activity. Find out how you can support this program here: https://support.allkidsbike.org/roosevelt-charter-school

If you are interested in daytime English classes for adults in June and July, you can still turn in the blue form next week before school ends on Wednesday.
