Roosevelt School Site | PORT ANGELES

Led by Unit Director Kennedy Venus, the staff and volunteers at the Roosevelt Unit serve growing numbers of young people each day as we expand to meet the needs of even more families in our community. Beginning September 2025, the Roosevelt Unit is opening its doors to five‑year‑olds enrolled in kindergarten for after‑school programs.

This exciting expansion means every student from kindergarten through 12th grade now has a safe, supportive place to go after school—a place filled with caring mentors, fun, and opportunities to learn and grow. Kindergarteners may attend up to 4 hours per day on school days, with additional options available during school breaks or Pay‑2‑Stay nights by coordinating with Membership Services or the Unit Director.

The Roosevelt Unit offers the same nationally recognized programs found across our organization, dedicated to building academic success, good character & citizenship, health & wellness, and workforce readiness. Together, we’re ensuring our youngest learners start strong—and that all kids have a place to belong.
