Summary

Roosevelt is a PK–6 elementary school at 1006 Grafton Street in Worcester, MA, serving 604 students — larger than most nearby Worcester elementary schools. It is part of the Worcester district, which ranks 304th of 351 districts statewide. Statewide, Roosevelt ranks 646th of 899 schools in 2025–2026, placing it in the 28th percentile with 1 star. That is low statewide, but it is above the district's overall percentile and above most nearby Worcester elementary schools except Lake View. Roosevelt sat around the 53rd percentile in 2015–2016 but has settled into the 27th–31st percentile range recently, suggesting the decline has flattened.

In 2025–2026 MCAS testing, Roosevelt's all-grade proficiency was 27.05% in ELA, 28.98% in math, and 25.00% in science — above the Worcester district in all three subjects, but roughly 12–16 points below state averages. Among nearby same-district Worcester elementaries, Roosevelt is second only to Lake View in ELA and math. Lake View is a major contrast: 48.05% ELA, 49.35% math, and 64.52% science, with a 66th-percentile rank. Roosevelt also trails Calvin Coolidge School in Shrewsbury (48.39% ELA, 60.48% math), though it outperforms Vernon Hill, Union Hill, Grafton Street, Quinsigamond, City View, Rice Square, and both nearby charter schools in ELA and math. Results vary sharply by grade: 6th grade is a strength (38.71% ELA, 43.55% math, above district and state) and 5th grade beats district averages, but 4th grade math is a serious weak spot at 13.04%, versus 25.80% in the district and 43.20% statewide.

Subgroup results are uneven. These ranks measure how well the school serves each group compared with other schools statewide. Roosevelt ranks in the 71st percentile for African American students, and English Language Learner students rank in the 75th percentile in 2025 — though that figure was the 10th percentile in 2024, so it is volatile. White students (19th percentile), female students (24th), special education students (24th), Hispanic students (27th), and low-socioeconomic-status students (32nd) rank much lower. Per-student spending was $17,630 in 2020–2021, the highest among nearby comparison schools with reported spending, and the student-teacher ratio was 13.8 in 2024–2025.
