Summary

Roosevelt International Middle is a public school serving about 760 students in grades 6-8 in the San Diego Unified district, consistently performing as a solid, middle-tier school within the state.

The school stands out for achieving stronger academic results than many nearby schools with similar or even greater resources, particularly in English Language Arts. For example, it outperforms schools like Clark Middle and Mann Middle by a significant margin. It also manages student attendance better, with a lower chronic absenteeism rate than the district and state averages and all other listed San Diego Unified middle schools. The school shows notable strengths in supporting specific student groups and does this efficiently, spending less per student than some neighboring schools with weaker outcomes.

While Roosevelt is a relative success story in its context, there are areas for growth. Mathematics proficiency, especially by 8th grade, lags behind state averages, and support for English Language Learners has been a recent challenge. Compared to a high-performing school like Coronado Middle in a wealthier area, Roosevelt operates in a different context, but its decade of stable performance suggests it has effective, sustainable practices worth considering.
