Summary:
The Roosevelt Independent School District (ISD) in Texas has only one elementary school, Roosevelt Elementary, which serves grades PK-5 with an enrollment of 501 students. While the school spends more per student than the state average, its academic performance consistently falls below Texas state averages, ranking in the bottom half of elementary schools statewide.
Roosevelt Elementary has received a 2-star rating out of 5 from School Digger, and its students struggle to meet grade-level proficiency standards on the STAAR tests. In reading, 3rd-5th grade proficiency rates range from 39.73% to 45.07%, compared to state averages of 52.02% to 57.83%. In math, 3rd-5th grade proficiency rates range from 32.43% to 41.67%, well below the state averages of 44.88% to 46.24%. The school's 5th grade science proficiency rate of 29.58% is on par with the state average.
With nearly 75% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Roosevelt Elementary serves a predominantly low-income community, which likely contributes to the school's academic challenges. Despite the smaller class sizes, with a student-teacher ratio of 12.4 compared to the state average, the school has been unable to translate this resource into improved student outcomes. Addressing the root causes of this underperformance will be crucial for the Roosevelt ISD to improve the educational opportunities for its students.
