Summary

Roosevelt Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 311 students in the highly-regarded Burlingame Elementary district, consistently performing well above California state averages in English, math, and science.

Within its own district, Roosevelt is a solid, middle-tier performer; its test scores are strong but generally trail those of top peers like Hoover Elementary and Franklin Elementary. Interestingly, Roosevelt has the highest per-student spending in the Burlingame district and a favorable student-teacher ratio, yet this resource advantage does not translate to the highest academic outcomes. The school has made excellent progress reducing chronic absenteeism, which is now well below the state average. However, performance for some student subgroups has shown significant year-to-year volatility, and the school's statewide ranking has gradually declined from the 96th to the 87th percentile over the past decade.

Comparisons to schools in neighboring districts highlight different educational contexts. For instance, schools in the affluent Hillsborough City Elementary district, such as West Hillsborough, have much higher per-pupil funding and exceptional test scores. Conversely, a school like San Mateo Park Elementary in the San Mateo-Foster City district performs far below. This positions Roosevelt as a strong school by any objective measure, with the opportunity to learn from the highest-performing schools in its immediate area.
