The school's academic performance is truly impressive, with proficiency rates in NJSLA/English Language Arts and NJSLA/Mathematics that significantly exceed state averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Roosevelt's proficiency rates ranged from 70.3% to 78% in ELA, compared to the state average of 56.1% to 57.1%.
