Summary

Roosevelt Elementary School is a K–5 school serving 233 students at 14237 Athens Ave in Lakewood, Ohio, part of the Lakewood City district — the smallest of the six Lakewood elementaries compared here, the only one that does not offer pre-kindergarten, and located close to the Cleveland city line.

Academically, Roosevelt is a solidly above-average Ohio school. In 2025–26 it ranked 487th of 1,560 elementary schools statewide (69th percentile) — still above the state midpoint, but a drop from the 4-star tier it held the year before, and the fourth straight year of decline from an 85th-percentile peak in 2022–23. Across seven tested subjects it averaged about 74% proficient, versus roughly 77% for the district and 64% statewide, beating the state in every subject. Fifth-grade English language arts has been a durable strength (84–90% proficient, at or above the district each year), while fifth-grade science slipped from 87.5% to 66.7% in one year. Lakewood peers Grant Elementary School and Lincoln Elementary School post 90th-percentile results on lower poverty and absenteeism — a benchmark Roosevelt has historically approached and now trails by about 20 percentile points.

Two things set Roosevelt apart. It serves a more disadvantaged population than most Lakewood peers — 47.6% free/reduced lunch, second-highest in the group — yet it outperforms the lower-poverty Emerson Elementary School and far outpaces the Cleveland-side schools. And chronic absenteeism is just 8.1%, well below the district's 21.8% and better than Hayes Elementary School and Harrison Elementary School, though class sizes (16.6 students per teacher) are mid-pack. One concern: the low-income subgroup, once among the state's best at the 87th–88th percentile, fell to the 54th percentile in 2025–26.
