Note from the Editor

Thank you for picking up the first edition
of the 2016 Roosevelt Roundup. We have been
working diligently to produce this issue, and
many more are on their way as the year unfolds.
We will try to produce quality content with a
very wide range of variety; from sports and entertainment to in-depth opinion pieces and hard
hitting stories.

My expectations for the newspaper this year
are to have less filler material and more real
stories, while still maintaing a fair balance of
entertainment and journalism. This means we
will possibly be covering stories that are outside
of Roosevelt, and writing opinion pieces on controversial topics that relate to students and young
Americans.

Last year, Mrs. Dunbars newspaper class
had only 5 students. This year, our numbers
have more than doubled. Hopefully we can write
many more stories with more members. However, we are always looking for more people to join
the newspaper staff. If you have any questions,
please stop by after or before school, or during
4th block if you have some free time.


Everybody on the Roosvelt Roundup staff,
including myself, look forward to an exciting
and productive year and hope everything goes
smoothly! We will do everything in our power
to keep the newspaper a reliable and credible
source, and only use reliable and credible sources to write our stories as well. We all wish you a
fulfilling and productive school year!
