Summary

Roosevelt Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 7-8 in the Roosevelt Union Free School District in New York, with 430 students. Despite spending significantly more per student than the state average, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of New York middle schools over the past decade, receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Roosevelt Middle School underperforms the state averages across all subject areas and grade levels. In 2024-2025, only 29.41% of 7th graders were proficient in ELA compared to the state average of 50.99%, and the 8th grade math proficiency rate was just 24.38% compared to 46.74% statewide. The school also struggles to serve its diverse student population, with African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, Special Education, and economically disadvantaged students all performing well below their peers statewide.

Interestingly, the nearby Shore Road School, Wantagh Middle School, and Merrick Avenue Middle School all significantly outperform Roosevelt Middle School academically, even though they serve similar grade levels and have comparable demographic profiles. This suggests that the issues at Roosevelt Middle School are specific to that school and district, and not simply a reflection of the broader regional challenges.
