Roosevelt Elementary, Labor Day Back to School Barbeque
Community
This is a school community back to school event sponsored by the Roosevelt Elementary PTA, designed to get families back together after the summer and to give them a chance to meet their teachers and see their new classrooms before the first day of school. Hopefully this will help with the butterflies of the kids and teachers. Last year approximately 700 people attend the first Roosevelt Elementary back to school barbeque.

Toys are teaching tools, little cultural manipulators directing us to this role, that paradigm. Toys reflect the culture we live in. Even Barbie has evolved from a Ken-dependent swimsuit model with a demure sideways glance into a career girl with a direct, in-your-face gaze. Toys are for play, for flights of imagination, psychological projection and preparation for adult life. As artistic subject matter, toys act as surrogates, allowing experimentation with the inexpressible and forbidden.
