Summary

Theodore Roosevelt Elementary School is a public elementary school in Cocoa Beach, Florida, serving 268 students in grades PK-6 as part of the Brevard School District, which is ranked 23 out of 67 districts in the state.

This school consistently ranks among the top 20% of Florida elementary schools, with exceptional academic performance that exceeds both district and state averages. Its proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and 5th grade Science are significantly higher than the Brevard and Florida state averages.

Compared to nearby schools, Robert L. Stevenson Elementary and Freedom 7 Elementary School of International Studies have even higher academic performance, with proficiency rates above 90% in many subjects. Nevertheless, Theodore Roosevelt Elementary School has maintained a 4-star or 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for the majority of the past 9 years, indicating a consistently high level of academic achievement that sets it apart within the Brevard School District.

The school has excellent teachers and a caring staff. Parent involvement is very active and not by force like choice schools in the area. There is a large military population in attendance at this school as well and pride in our country and good citizenship are taught. Children love going to school every day. They make learning fun. Teachers are well educated, many with master's degrees. My child loves her school and teachers. I would highly recommend it. Having been in 5 different school districts both public and private, this school has a great reading program. My child reads 2 grade levels above. I credit this to excellent teachers who provide positive rewards for reading. Close Quote

Please be aware that the administration at this school is extremely useless.

This was my child's first year in this school (6th grade).

I repeated requested a conference with a specific teacher who always had an excuse why he could not meet with me. It took me three calls and an email to get the principal to finally return my calls. When she returned my call, she told me that because I had an issue with the teacher I needed to "discuss it with him."

In the end, this teacher (math and reading) ended up leaving during Christmas break only to be replaced twice during the rest of the school year. The entire first semester of reading was to "read your library book" and math class was spent reviewing basic skills learned in 4th and 5th grades. After a waste of the first semester and the subsequent revolving teachers, these children learned only a small fraction of what they will need to succeed in 7th grade.

What a mess. Close Quote

Great teachers, great staff, great kids. All around perfect school. I have two children in college that went to Roosevelt, and a current 6th grader. I moved out of the district last year and now drive him everyday so he can attend school there. Close Quote
