Facts and practical information

The Roosevelt School in Casper, Wyoming, originally named North Casper School, was designed by leading Wyoming architectural firm Garbutt, Weidner & Sweeney in 1921 and was built in 1922. Need for the school followed from a post-World War I boom in Casper's economy and population, connected to a boom in the petroleum industry there. The school served as a neighborhood center in an otherwise-neglected area of the town. ()
