Students who are staying on campus for after-school classes will need to be picked up by a designated parent or guardian at the time class is over. We DO NOT have school bus transportation home. Please come in through the main school doors and sign your student out with the PTA chaperone before leaving.
PTA wants to ensure that all students are able to attend after-school programs. To receive a scholarship for our Spring Session, please complete the Request for Financial Aid Form. Please have all requests submitted by January 8th for first access to classes. Please contact scholarships@roosevelt-pta.org with any questions.
In order to have these after-school enrichment classes onsite at Roosevelt, we need a volunteer chaperone to be present during the time of the class. They are there to help ensure the safety of our students. Chaperones are welcome to participate in the class but are NOT required to. Do you have a little one at home? Bring them with you! They can be your co-chaperone!
Who Can Be a Chaperone?
Parents
Grandparents
Community Member
Anyone who is a PTA member! Memberships can be purchased here. If the cost of membership is a barrier, please email president@roosevelt-pta.org to request a scholarship.
The Volunteer Chaperone should arrive 10 minutes prior to course start time and remain on Roosevelt’s campus until all students are released to designated pick-up persons from the roster.
Take attendance at the beginning of each class.
If a student is unaccounted for, the PTA Chaperone must report the absence immediately to the front office. In the event the absence was not excused or reported to the front office, the PTA Chaperone must immediately call, then email, the parent/guardian from the roster, then call the Enrichment Coordinator.
Release students to their approved pick-up person at the end of class.
** Please note that the PTA Chaperone is NOT expected to help the Instructor facilitate the class, supervise or discipline students, or execute any of the Instructor’s duties. The Instructor is responsible for ensuring that they are properly staffed to run the class without any assistance from the PTA Chaperone.
Priority enrollment to ensure your child gets a spot in the class(es) they want.
A free class for your student!
Complete the volunteer application through the Bellingham School District. Your volunteer status is valid for 2 years.
Please email our Volunteer Enrichment Coordinator if you would like to become a chaperone. We're always looking for back-up chaperones, too. There is no class discount or priority registration for back-ups, but lots of gratitude from the Roosevelt community!

Majestic Adventures is offering a new After-School LARP program designed to work in the once-per-week nature of after-school programs. Though not an Adventure Quest program, it is active, exciting, and creative experience that draws on storytelling, imagination, acting, teamwork, foam-sword dueling, improvisation, and co-creation. Questers will find lots to be excited about! It allows a slightly higher ratio of kids to adults (1:10 vs 1:6), and so kids can enjoy questing on a team with more of their friends together.
Mythmakers is a series of daily, self-contained adventures all centered in the same fantasy setting (for example a neighborhood in a city). The self-contained nature of the adventures offers flexibility for tailoring adventures to fit the participants’ interests, and those who aren’t interested in the adventure-of the-day always have the option to play a fun variety of sword games instead. Each mini-adventure contributes to the ultimate goals of the season, such as building a stronger community and/or defeating a powerful antagonist. This means that participants build on one another’s achievements and by the end of the program, celebrate all that they’ve accomplished together. These programs use a simple LARP game system, with rules and powers that promote player choice and teamwork.
