Summary

Franklin Delano Roosevelt Elementary is a K–8 school in Daly City, serving 294 students in Jefferson Elementary, among several nearby Peninsula schools. Its 2025–26 results vary by subject: math is above state and district averages, while English language arts (ELA) and science are below them. The clearest takeaway is that math is the school’s strongest subject, but that strength has not carried over to ELA or science.

Compared with the ten nearby schools, the school’s all-grade results are below peer averages in every subject: 43% in ELA versus 52%, 41% in math versus 48%, and 28% in science versus 39%. Among the eleven schools including FDR, its ELA result ranked fourth-lowest, math was sixth, and science was fourth-lowest. Against its own district and the state, however, math stands out: 41% proficiency is 1 point above the district and 3 above the state. ELA is 4 points below the district and 6 below the state; science is 1 point below the district and 8 below the state. Grade-level results show a sharper contrast: third-grade math reached 67%, versus 49% districtwide and 47% statewide, ranking second among nearby schools reporting that grade, behind Marjorie H. Tobias Elementary. Eighth-grade ELA was 31%, about 19 points below both district and state results.

Results have improved since 2022–23: ELA rose 5 percentage points, math 14, and science 9. Math moved from 7 points below the state to 3 points above it, while science barely changed in the latest year, from 27% to 28%. SchoolDigger rates the school at the 55th statewide percentile with 3 stars in 2025–26; its percentile rose 22 points since 2021–22 but fell 6 points from the prior year. The 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 16.9, the lowest among the nearby schools, while free/reduced lunch eligible was 42% in 2024–25, close to the peer average of 41%. SchoolDigger’s effectiveness percentile for Low Socio Economic Status Students was 35 in 2025–26, compared with 55 overall; for Hispanic Students, it rose from 5 in 2023–24 to 48 in 2024–25. All-grade peer comparisons are not perfectly matched because most nearby schools serve K–5 while this school serves K–8.
