Roosevelt High School offers opportunities like no other school, with community events, organizations and a variety of classes offered – the options for students are endless.

Roosevelt’s marketing program hosts multiple charity events, led by students. The largest is the Block Out Cancer football game. This event raised over $100,000 for pediatric cancer research at C.S. Mott Children's Hospital. Students work all year on this, and other charity events with the community.

RHS offers many classes to prepare students for future careers.

One unique area is the metals, machine and auto shop programs at Roosevelt. These classes allow students to practice professional machine skills, try possible careers and provide opportunities to graduate with professional certifications. Similarly, students in Botany classes can earn certifications in floral design before graduation.

The Wyandotte Music Department, with 410 musicians, offers many classes: symphony band, chamber strings, jazz band, choir, chorus, and others. Additionally, Roosevelt is the only school Downriver with a string orchestra. These classes lead to countless musical opportunities.

The building has the largest high school planetarium east of the Mississippi, which is used to expose students to science beyond Earth’s atmosphere.

Providing more areas to explore is the architecture and drafting program. These classes dive deeper into STEM technology and design, teaching students to use professional techniques and software. The media program also offers industry-standard editing and design software training. Our art program turns this creativity into hands-on mediums.

For students interested in helping others, Roosevelt offers health occupations and Peer-to-Peer programs.

Differing from electives, the school runs a variety of Advanced Placement courses to challenge students academically, and possibly receive college credit. Roosevelt has AP courses in almost every subject.

Roosevelt’s vast opportunities allow students to experience different things and continue to grow. There is something for everyone at RHS.
