Follow Our Journey On Social
Research supports that literacy is an embodied, multimodal process.
By moving outdoors, we provide a ‘material starting place’ where sensory engagement facilitates a transition from task resistance to authentic student agency. It’s not just a change of scenery.
It’s a strategic expansion of the learning environment.

Happy National Siblings Day! Today we celebrate the incredible bonds that make our school community even stronger. Our students with siblings at our school share more than a last name; they share classrooms, hallways, friendships, and memories that will last a lifetime. It is a joy to watch them grow, learn, and support one another each day.
At our school, family truly matters. We are grateful to the families who entrust us with each member of their crew and allow us to be part of their journey. Here’s to the brothers and sisters who learn, laugh, and succeed side by side, inspiring us all along the way.

The Roig Academy IB World Cardboard Regatta is more than a boat race. It is the culmination of the Fifth Grade IB Exhibition and a schoolwide inquiry into how people, places, and systems connect South Florida to the world.
Students researched the Everglades, the Miami River, Cape Florida, Vizcaya, Coral Gables, and the Freedom Tower, as well as the cultures and histories of the Miccosukee, the Bahamas, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, and Cuba. They then applied science, engineering, design, and teamwork to build boats and presentation boards that represent their learning.
This event reflects inquiry in action. Research becomes design. Design becomes engineering. Engineering becomes teamwork, perseverance, and leadership on the water.
This is learning through doing.
This is the IB Exhibition in action.
This is the Roig Academy Regatta.

For a student with dyscalculia, “extra practice” often leads to more frustration rather than better results. This learning difference requires a fundamental shift in how math is delivered. The Roig Academy focuses on this essential change in instruction by using research-based strategies. We move beyond traditional lectures to ensure that every student has a pathway to math fluency that actually works for their unique brain. ➕➖✖️➗

Signature School Events
“Ourselves” Art Installation
As we explore one of the IB Transdisciplinary Themes “How We Express Ourselves,” students are inquiring into ways to express their feelings, ideas, values, and beliefs in ways that demonstrate their appreciation for the world around them.
Students were encouraged to reflect and represent a pose which best represents their uniqueness and individuality. Poses depict a wide range of self-expression and nonverbal communication. The vibrant colors communicate a variety of moods, emotions, and feelings, all of which help our students understand themselves, and appreciate others.
The World Cardboard Regatta
The World Cardboard Regatta project is the culmination of our students’ work. We have been able to bring life and meaning to many aspects of History, Geography, Science.
While in their groups, students have engaged in the inquiry process in order to explore, research and report on their individualized summative projects. We have facilitated opportunities for students to come together in mixed grade levels to, share their ideas, conclusions, and problem solve for The Roig Academy World Cardboard Regatta.
Our Sky of Gratitude
The Roig Academy students have replicated the Luxembourg Swings Art Installation to bring that sense of happiness to our school on this Thanksgiving Celebration. This art installation also includes a message of gratitude through a painting or poem.
The importance of showing gratitude comes from the actual definition of gratitude. It is an affirmation of goodness. We affirm that there are good things in the world, gift, and benefits we’ve received. When we look at life as a whole, gratitude encourages us to identify some goodness in our life.
