What are some misconceptions about Roosevelt?
Some misconceptions about Roosevelt is that everyone here is a druggy or poor. Every school has a few people who do drugs or is low on money but just because there are a few people doesn’t mean that everyone there is to. Personally, before I started here I thought everyone here was going to be a bad person and make bad choices. But once I started I realized that most people aren’t bad at all. We are all different people here, very diverse. We rough riders are all about equality, friendship, music and fun! We don’t all do drugs, or drink or go to jail. We might be in the ghetto, but that doesn’t mean WE are ghetto. We love what we do here and who we are and we understand that if we go here, we WILL get judged but we don’t care. We are respectful and if we keep it up people will understand that we are a a flower in a crack in the sidewalk. We are rare, but we are there. There are plenty of things we can change to change peoples stereotype about us. We can help the community, we can do more public activities. If we get attention everyone will know that we aren’t all bad people. Every school has different people, we just get recognized for it.
