Bringing our Roig community together to learn is always special, and yesterday’s session with Dr. Leon Mandler, an experienced child psychologist, was no exception. He explained how resilience in children develops, why self-efficacy is the foundation of confidence, and how to create a home culture of effort.

From the stage lights of A Christmas Carol to the sunshine at Merrie Christmas Park, we had a fantastic field trip. Experiencing live theater helps us learn in meaningful and memorable ways. 🎄🎵

At The Roig Academy, every decision is rooted in research. Dr. Jenni Roig reminds us why: “Instruction not supported by research can unintentionally affect student outcomes and contribute to educational inequity.” 📚

🧪 Science comes alive at The Roig! Our students investigated how potatoes react to food dye, discovering key concepts about homeostasis and tissue response. 🧪🥔

Many girls show reading difficulty through quiet effort rather than visible struggle. This can make their needs easy to miss.

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.
“Jenni set forth realistic goals for our boys and monitored their progress from beginning to end.”
