Mike Verbout
Alumni Association President


It is with a heavy heart that we share the news of the passing of Michael Verbout, Alumni Association President. Mike passed away peacefully on February 16th, surrounded by his family.

We have much to say about Mike's legacy and impact on our community, but for now, we are taking time to grieve, remember, and celebrate him. In the recent days, we have seen an incredible outpouring of support from his classmates, former students, neighbors, fellow volunteers, and the community at large. Mike truly was special to so many.

The Verbout family invites you to join us in celebrating his life on Friday, February 27th at 1:00pm at the Moore Street Corps Salvation Army.

We hope there will be a tremendous turnout for a tremendous man. Please help us share this message.

Who are Roosevelt Alumni?


People from every walk of life have strode the halls of Roosevelt High School, located in the St. Johns neighborhood of Portland, Oregon. Our shared educational experience draws us together, regardless of where our lives have gone after graduation.

There are no 'typical' alumni. We're volunteers, we're blue-collar workers, we're in the medical and legal fields, we're involved in business, industry and with non-profits. We're stay-at-home parents, we're educators, we're in government, we're in the military -- and that's just the tip of the iceberg!

Why Stay Involved?


We've graduated and moved on with our lives -- but our school is still an important, vibrant part of the community where we were educated. And our school needs our support!

There are many ways to be involved. Your participation is both welcome and encouraged. Your skills and knowledge are needed.

Joining the Roosevelt High School Alumni Association gives you a chance to reconnect with Roosevelt friends -- and to make new friends! It gives you the opportunity to actively engage in projects, to socialize, to brainstorm for the future and to have FUN doing it!
