History
Roosevelt was the third high school in the Sioux Falls School District. The school opened for the 1991–1992 school year after a $17 million construction effort.[2] Eventual overcrowding at the school was used as a pitching point for the referendum that later funded Jefferson High School.[3]
Athletics
Roosevelt athletic teams are nicknamed the Rough Riders and compete in the Metro Athletic Conference.[4] The girls basketball team won 111 games in a row from 1997-01, and won 5 straight state championships. The 2021-22 boys basketball team achieved a perfect 22-0 season en route to back-to-back state championships.
