Students, Submit Your Art for the Yearbook!

Once again, Roosevelt students will be the official artists of our school yearbook! To participate, please review the instructions below and submit your child’s artwork to this 2021-22 Student Art Submission Form by Oct. 29, 2021. (Please note: Submissions received after this date will not be included on the yearbook cover.)

WHAT TO SUBMIT

Roosevelt’s 2021-22 yearbook theme celebrates our students’ immense growth, resilience and transformation. This year, we are asking students to submit two drawings — a personalized leaf and something in nature that grows/changes/transforms. Every child’s submissions will be included in the yearbook (up to three drawings per student).

1. Draw a single leaf with your face or likeness inside it. You may draw any type of leaf in any color or combination of colors, and represent yourself however you choose.

2. Draw something in nature that grows or changes. Some examples: trees, plants, flowers, butterflies, frogs, mushrooms, etc. If you really want to get creative, you can submit drawings that show the transformation or metamorphosis (ie, a caterpillar and a butterfly) or you can incorporate your own likeness into your drawing (ie, if I were a butterfly, what would I look like?)

ARTWORK SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

— Please use a WHITE 8.5 x 11 sheet of paper for each drawing.
— Draw and color your artwork with any medium you like (pencils, pens, crayons, markers), but please do not color in the white background (the drawings will be cut out).
— Tips to ensure your artwork stands out: Draw your portrait with pencil and outline with a black pen. (For TK and K students who draw very lightly, try drawing with a black marker instead of pencil so we can see it.)
— PHOTOGRAPH the drawing (smartphone cameras are perfectly fine) in good light.
— Photos must be in focus and taken straight on (not from an angle).
— Don’t worry if the paper is creased or crinkled; just flatten it out the best you can.
— Before uploading your images, PLEASE NAME YOUR FILES IN THIS FORMAT: Grade-Teacher_FirstName-LastName_SubmissionNumber (ex: 4-Pirri_Jane-Smith_1, 4-Pirri_Jane-Smith_2, 4-Pirri_Jane-Smith_3)
— Only JPG and PNG files will be accepted.
— DEADLINE: Upload your files by OCTOBER 29, 2021

5th Graders: Submit Your Baby Photos

It’s amazing to see how much our little ones have grown! That’s why the 5th grade baby photo retrospective is such a hit each year.

Please email ONE baby photo of your child, labeled with your child’s name and teacher, to rooseveltbabyphoto@gmail.com by no later than Nov. 19, 2021. Submission instructions below:

  • Only digital files will be accepted.
  • If you only have a hard copy, scan the image or take a photo of it with a digital camera. 
  • The child’s name must be part of the file name with correct spelling. Please label your photos: lastname_firstname_teacherlastname (ex: smith_jane_brashear). Photos labeled incorrectly will not be accepted.
