Summary

Roosevelt Elementary is a K–8 school in Compton, California, serving 534 students in Compton Unified. Its latest test results are mixed, but the most important finding is that proficiency remains below the district in all three subjects: in 2025–2026, about 42% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 40% in math, and 25% in science.

Math is Roosevelt’s strongest subject against the state: its 40% proficiency was 1 point above California’s, while ELA was 8 points below and science was 11 points below. Against the district, Roosevelt trailed by 12 points in ELA, 7 in math, and 5 in science. Among 11 nearby schools, it ranked sixth in ELA and math and seventh in science. Grade-level results point to particular challenges in ELA in grades 3 and 7, where Roosevelt had the lowest results among nearby K–8 peers reporting those grades, including Mayo Elementary, Kelly Elementary, and Emerson Elementary. Math in grades 7 and 8 and science in grade 8 were also weak spots compared with state and nearby-school results.

Results have improved across the four reported years: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, proficiency rose 15 points in ELA, 7 in math, and 14 in science, and the state gaps narrowed in every subject. SchoolDigger places Roosevelt at the 55th statewide percentile with 3 stars for 2025–2026, up from the 20th percentile in 2021–2022. Attendance is a standout: chronic absenteeism fell from 43% to 3% over that period, below the district’s 13% and the state’s 18%. Context for families includes a student-teacher ratio of 26.8 in 2024–2025, the second-highest among nearby schools, and 92% of students free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s effectiveness ranking for Hispanic students was 76th percentile in 2025–2026, compared with 55 overall; its ranking for Low Socio Economic Status Students was 72nd percentile, also above the overall standing.
