Summary

Roosevelt Elementary is a K–5 school with 524 students in San Leandro, served by the San Leandro Unified district. Its 2025–26 results were strong in English language arts (ELA), mathematics and science, and its SchoolDigger standing was higher than the district’s. The most important finding for families is that Roosevelt led nearby K–5 schools with comparable results in all three subjects and outscored both its district and California in each.

Mathematics is Roosevelt’s strongest subject against the district and state: 53% of students were proficient, 24 points above the district and 15 above the state. ELA proficiency was 63%, 21 points above the district and 14 above the state; it also had the school’s largest lead over nearby schools, exceeding their average by 38 points. In science, 39% were proficient—8 points above the district and 3 above the state. That is Roosevelt’s narrowest state lead, but still the highest nearby result, 3 points ahead of Washington Elementary. Fourth grade stood out in ELA and math, with proficiency of 70% and 62%, respectively.

Results have been broadly steady: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA rose 4 points, math rose 1, and science fell 2 after a large increase and subsequent drop. Over the same period, the state gained ground in math and science, though Roosevelt remains ahead. SchoolDigger ranked Roosevelt at the 75th percentile with 4 stars in 2025–26, compared with the district’s 38th percentile and 2 stars. Its student-teacher ratio was 24.9 in 2024–25, the highest among nearby schools with reported ratios, and 46% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s subgroup effectiveness rankings also varied: White Students ranked at the 97th percentile, compared with 75th overall, while Asian Students ranked at the 28th percentile. These rankings describe the school’s standing for each group, not comparisons between students.
