Like Us
This morning, we had the privilege of welcoming Officer Ebrahim from JMPD Community Outreach: Region B Randburg, as well as Chris Vivier from COJ EMS Public Information, Education and Relations, to speak to our gentlemen at Roosevelt High School.
We extend our sincere gratitude for taking the time to engage with our boys on matters that are becoming increasingly important in today’s society.
The focus of the discussion was public safety, responsible behaviour, accountability and the role each learner plays in creating a respectful and safe school environment. Every learner deserves to feel safe at school — physically, emotionally, and socially — and it is our responsibility as a school community to help create and protect that environment.
Over the past few weeks, we have noticed a concerning decline in discipline and conduct amongst some of our boys. Issues surrounding peer pressure, bullying, disrespect, the way our uniform is worn, and the manner in which some boys speak to and treat others — especially girls — have highlighted the urgent need for guidance, accountability, and positive role models.
At Roosevelt, we believe that education is about far more than academics. It is about shaping young men of character, integrity, empathy and respect. We want to send young people into the world who are not only successful, but who are genuinely good citizens that contribute positively to society and their communities.
This is not a journey the school can walk alone. We kindly ask our parents and guardians to partner with us during this time. The values taught at home and reinforced at school play a vital role in helping our boys grow into respectful, responsible men.
Thank you once again to Officer Ebrahim and Chris Vivier for helping us reinforce these important messages. Together, as a school community, we continue striving to guide, support, and uplift the young men entrusted to our care.
