Welcome to ROAR - Resources Opportunities, And Relationships

Welcome to the E.L. Haynes Elementary School family community — ROAR!! We are so excited that you’ve chosen Haynes as the place where your little one will grow, learn, and thrive. That journey can be amazing — but let’s be real: life is a lot, and parenting? Bonkers.

Don’t worry though — you’re not in this alone. ROAR is here to walk with you every step of the way.

ROAR stands for Resources, Opportunities, and Relationships — the heartbeat of our school’s family community. Whether you’re navigating kindergarten jitters or juggling middle-of-the-night questions, our goal is simple: to support, empower, and connect families, students, and staff.

We know that no caregiver or educator has all the answers. But together?Everything is possible.

We’re a beautifully diverse community, and we’re committed to showing up for each other - especially across lines that too often divide. Throughout the year, we host intentional activities to help us engage, reflect, and restore. These aren’t just “events” — they’re meaningful opportunities for our little ones (and YOU!) to build friendships, feel seen, and breathe a little.

We hope you’ll join us as we build a strong, joyful foundation. We can’t wait to meet you, volunteer with you, learn more about you, and ROAR together.

With love and community,— The ROAR Team
