Despite being a magnet school, Roosevelt Middle consistently underperforms the state and district averages in proficiency rates for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science across all grades. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 30.03% of Roosevelt Middle students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 33.62% in the Coffeyville district and 44.47% statewide. The school's performance is particularly low in Mathematics, with only 20.55% of students proficient or better, compared to 22.67% in the district and 38.73% statewide. Additionally, Roosevelt Middle struggles to serve its diverse student population effectively, with the school's rankings for various subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, English Language Learners, and Special Education students, among the lowest in the state.
While the nearby Independence Middle School has shown some improvement in academic performance, with higher proficiency rates in ELA and Math compared to Roosevelt Middle, Roosevelt has not been able to keep pace. The school also faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates and dropout rates, which are significantly higher than the state average. These factors, coupled with the high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, suggest that Roosevelt Middle may need to implement more targeted interventions and support systems to address the unique needs of its student population and improve overall academic outcomes.
