Summary

Roosevelt Elementary is a 490-student K–6 school in Hanford, California, in the Hanford Elementary School District. Its 2025–26 results were mixed: math proficiency was 39%, just above the state’s 38%, while ELA was 45%, below the state’s 49%. Science is the clearest concern: only 17% of students were proficient, compared with 36% statewide and 31% in the district.

Compared with seven nearby K–6 schools, Roosevelt ranked sixth of eight in ELA, fourth in math, and last in science; those schools averaged 48% in ELA, 40% in math, and 34% in science. Roosevelt’s math result was 2 points below the district, while its ELA was 6 points below and science was 14 points below. Grade-level results show an especially sharp fifth-grade challenge: ELA proficiency was 37% and math was 23%, ranking seventh among the eight schools in both subjects. Sixth-grade ELA was a brighter spot at 55%, 7 points above the state and ranking fourth among the nearby schools.

ELA and math have improved over four years, but science has not kept pace: since 2022–23, ELA rose 6 percentage points and math rose 10, while science rose only 1 point and fell from 22% in 2023–24 to 17% in 2025–26. SchoolDigger gave Roosevelt a 51st-percentile ranking and three stars in 2025–26, up from the 38th percentile in 2021–22 but sixth among the eight nearby K–6 schools. Its 2024–25 student–teacher ratio was 25.7, higher than the nearby peers’ average of 23.0; 91% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Hispanic Students was notably stronger than the school’s overall standing: the group reached the 69th percentile in 2025–26, compared with 51st overall. Its ranking for Special Education Students also rose sharply, from the 6th percentile in 2022–23 to the 42nd in 2025–26.
