Summary

Roosevelt Elementary serves 219 prekindergarten-through-grade-5 students in Arkansas City, Kansas. Its 2025–26 proficiency rates were 39% in English language arts (ELA), 30% in math, and 17% in science. The clearest concern is grade 5: just 22% were proficient in ELA, 17% in math, and 17% in science—about 28 to 29 percentage points below state rates in every subject.

ELA is Roosevelt’s strongest subject relative to its district, while science is its largest weakness compared with nearby schools and the state. The school was 8 points above the Arkansas City district in ELA and 6 points above in math, but 4 points below in science; it fell short of state rates in all three subjects. The 10 nearby schools averaged 42% in ELA, 34% in math, and 35% in science, putting Roosevelt 3, 3, and 18 points below those averages, respectively. Among Roosevelt and those 10 schools, it ranked 6th in ELA, 7th in math, and 10th in science. Grade 4 was a relative bright spot: ELA proficiency was 55%, ranking 4th of 11 schools.

Results remain below earlier highs in math and science. From 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA slipped 2 percentage points, math fell 12 points, and science fell 13 points; science’s gap from the state narrowed slightly in the latest year but remained 21 points. SchoolDigger gives Roosevelt 1 star and a 23rd-percentile ranking, up from the 20th percentile the prior year but down from the 51st percentile in 2022–23. Its student-teacher ratio was 11.9, lower than all but one supplied nearby school, while its free/reduced-price lunch rate was 74%, above the nearby-school average; these figures are context, not explanations for test results. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure for male students rose to the 38th percentile in 2025–26, compared with the school’s overall 23rd percentile. For students receiving special education, the latest supplied ranking was the 36th percentile in 2024–25, up from the 8th percentile the year before, while the overall school ranking moved in the opposite direction.
