Summary

Roosevelt Elementary in Lubbock, TX, serves 519 students in grades PK-5 within the Roosevelt Independent School District (Isd), a district ranked in the bottom quarter of Texas. After showing signs of improvement in recent years, the school has experienced a sharp decline, dropping to the 17th percentile (1 star) in the most recent year, a significant setback from its 43rd percentile ranking just a year prior. This recent downturn is a key concern, especially given that the school maintains a favorable student-to-teacher ratio of 12.6:1 and per-student spending in line with nearby schools, suggesting resources are not the primary issue.

One of the most striking findings is the contrast with Rise Academy, a charter school just 8.36 miles away that serves a similar demographic but achieves dramatically different results. Rise Academy ranks in the 92nd percentile (5 stars) with proficiency rates often double or triple those of Roosevelt, proving that high performance is achievable for a similar student body in the same area. Roosevelt’s performance is also inconsistent across grades and subjects; for example, 3rd grade math proficiency dropped to just 24.66% in the most recent year, significantly below the state average of 44.33% and the lowest among comparable schools. However, the school has a notable "bright spot" in its Gifted and Talented program, which ranks in the 58th percentile (3 stars), a stark contrast to its overall struggles.

The school’s support for English Language Learner (ELL) students has been highly erratic, swinging from an exceptional 83rd percentile ranking in 2023-2024 to a 1-star ranking in 2025-2026, suggesting a fragile support system. Science remains a persistent weakness, with 5th grade proficiency hovering near the state average but not improving. While the school’s challenges are significant, particularly in early-grade math, the success of its Gifted and Talented program and the nearby example of Rise Academy indicate that different educational models or leadership can yield vastly superior outcomes. For parents, this suggests that while Roosevelt faces foundational issues, there are clear assets and proven paths to improvement within the community.
