A Seat at the Table
For Women’s History Month 2026, Ms. Vallarino’s and Mr. Frost’s art classes collaborated together with Librarian Ms. Cloues to create a special art installation for Roosevelt Middle School entitled: A Seat at the Table. Students were given time to research a significant woman, past or present, who they felt some kind of personal connection to. In paired partnerships, they took on the role of chair designer to develop and create a chair for their chosen "client". They conducted research, drafted sketches, identified materials, and crafted a chair that fit the personality of their client while concurrently teaching others about her importance in society.

8th Grade Field Trip to the de Young Museum
8th grade Art Elective students this year had the wonderful opportunity to participate in a field trip to the de Young Museum in Golden Gate Park. This world class museum is only a few blocks away from RMS and many students have never been. Students were able to see how manga (Japanese comics) are printed and were able to sketch in their art journals while exploring the museum.
