Summary

Franklin D. Roosevelt is a PK–8 school in the Cleveland Municipal district, serving 371 students at 800 Linn Dr on Cleveland's east side, in a neighborhood where several other district and charter schools sit within about a mile and a half.

Statewide, this school ranks in the bottom tier: 1547th of 1560 Ohio schools, or the 1st percentile, in 2025–2026. That is below even its own district, which itself ranks 689th of 773 districts. Test results are low across nearly every grade and subject. In 2025–2026, 3rd grade math proficiency was 11.4% (district 33.6%, state 62.1%), 4th grade math 0%, 3rd grade ELA 2.9%, 8th grade ELA 11.1%, and 8th grade science 5.7%. Similar lows appear in earlier years, so this is a sustained pattern rather than a one-year dip. Nearby schools in the same district show what is possible: Kenneth W Clement, 1.63 miles away, reached 72.7% in 3rd grade math, and Stonebrook-White Montessori, 0.82 miles away with almost identical enrollment, posted 43.5% in 8th grade science versus 5.7% here.

Chronic absenteeism is a major challenge: 61.7% in 2025–2026, down from 68.9% in 2022–2023 but still above the district's 54.3% and far above Kenneth W Clement's 28.0% and Stonebrook-White's 40.9%. The student-teacher ratio jumped from 14.8 in 2023–2024 to 21.8 in 2024–2025. Spending was $11,542 per student in 2018–2019, less than most nearby district schools, while nearby charters such as Horizon Science Academy-Cleveland Middle School ($7,483) and Lake Erie Preparatory School ($8,046) post higher scores. Relative bright spots are narrow — 5th grade ELA at 24.2% and 4th grade ELA at 20% — and remain below district averages.
