Summary:
The 21 schools in Roseville City include 17 elementary schools serving K–5 and four middle schools serving grades 6–8. In 2025–26, school-level averages were above state rates in every subject: elementary schools by 5 points in English language arts (ELA), 11 in math and 10 in science; middle schools by 8, 9 and 9 points, respectively. The most important takeaway is that school results—especially among elementary schools—vary far more than these averages suggest, with about 40-point spreads in each subject.
Among middle schools, Barbara Chilton Middle led in all three subjects, scoring 64% in ELA, 56% in math and 55% in science—6, 9 and 10 points above the middle-school averages. George A. Buljan Middle was lowest, at 48%, 38% and 29%, respectively. Elementary leaders differed by subject: William Kaseberg Elementary led ELA at 67%, Diamond Creek Elementary led math at 59%, and Junction Elementary led science at 55%. Bradford Woodbridge Fundamental Elementary was lowest in all three: 26% ELA, 18% math and 14% science, 28–31 points below elementary averages.
Across all 21 schools, average ELA and math scores fell by 2 and 1 points from 2024–25 to 2025–26, while science rose by 3; the average margin over state results narrowed in each subject. Individual schools moved differently: George Cirby Elementary science rose 21 points, while Stoneridge Elementary ELA fell 10 points. SchoolDigger’s ranking history also shows different trajectories: Bradford Woodbridge dropped from the 25th to the 12th percentile from 2023–24 to 2025–26, while George Cirby rose from the 47th to the 55th. Reported free/reduced lunch eligibility for 2024–25 was 58% at Kaseberg and 88% at Bradford Woodbridge; these figures are context, not an explanation for scores. Staffing figures do not neatly predict results either: Barbara Chilton and Robert C. Cooley Middle both had a 23.9 student-teacher ratio, yet Barbara scored higher in all three subjects.
