The school is part of the Port Huron Area School District, which is ranked 450 out of 613 districts in Michigan and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, Roosevelt Elementary consistently performs below the district and state averages in M-Step test scores across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 7.55% of 4th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 26.4% for the district and 42.4% for the state. The school also has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 29.5% to 37.2% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, Roosevelt Elementary has a very high percentage of students (80.83% in 2023-2024) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite the high spending per student ($18,230 in 2023-2024) and low student-teacher ratio, Roosevelt Elementary has not shown significant improvement in its academic performance or other key metrics over the past several years, remaining among the lowest-performing schools in the state.
