Summary

Roosevelt Elementary is a public elementary school in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, serving students from kindergarten to 5th grade as part of the Eau Claire Area School District. While the district is ranked 194 out of 426 in the state, Roosevelt Elementary has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past decade, dropping from 234th out of 1,076 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2014-2015 to its current ranking of 711th out of 1,044 schools in 2024-2025. The school's rating has also decreased from 4 stars to 2 stars during this period.

Roosevelt Elementary's academic performance, as measured by the Forward Exam, is generally below the district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels. In 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics were lower than the district and state averages for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades. The school's performance in Social Studies and Science for 4th grade was also below the district and state averages. Additionally, Roosevelt Elementary's performance for specific student subgroups, such as female students, male students, white students, special education students, and low socioeconomic status students, is generally lower than the state averages for these subgroups.

The school has also experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 10.7% to 21.7% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the desired target of less than 10%. Furthermore, Roosevelt Elementary has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 37.29% to 40.39% in recent years, indicating a higher proportion of students from low-income families. While the school has seen an increase in per-student spending and a decrease in student-teacher ratio, these changes have not yet translated into improved academic outcomes. Addressing the underlying factors contributing to the school's struggles, such as attendance, family support, and targeted interventions, may be necessary to help Roosevelt Elementary improve its performance and better serve its students.
