Summary

Roosevelt School is an elementary school located in Manville, New Jersey, serving grades 3-4 with a total enrollment of 240 students. The school is part of the Manville School District, which is ranked 523 out of 609 districts in New Jersey and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, Roosevelt School has consistently underperformed compared to the state average in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency on the NJSLA assessments. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 33% of 3rd graders and 42.8% of 4th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state averages of 44.9% and 53.6%, respectively. Similarly, in Mathematics, only 36.2% of 3rd graders and 32.7% of 4th graders were proficient or better, compared to the state averages of 49.8% and 46.7%. The school also has consistently high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 14.9% to 22% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

When comparing Roosevelt School to other nearby schools, such as the Elizabeth Avenue School, it becomes evident that Roosevelt School is underperforming. The Elizabeth Avenue School, located approximately 3 miles away, has consistently outperformed Roosevelt School in both ELA and Mathematics proficiency. Despite the school's challenges, the per-student spending at Roosevelt School is comparable to nearby schools, suggesting that the issue may not be solely related to funding and resources. The combination of high chronic absenteeism, a high percentage of students from low-income families, and the school's underperformance across various student subgroups suggests that there may be complex socioeconomic and cultural factors contributing to the school's challenges.
