Roosevelt School

Summary:

Roosevelt School is an elementary school in Yuma, Arizona, serving 257 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Yuma Elementary District, which is ranked 315 out of 540 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating.

Despite its relatively high per-student spending of $9,565, Roosevelt School consistently underperforms compared to the district and state averages on standardized tests. In the 2022-2023 school year, only 19% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in Science, compared to the district average of 33% and the state average of 34%. The school's 3rd-grade English Language Arts proficiency rate of 29% also lags behind the district's 33% and the state's 41%. Roosevelt School's low academic performance is reflected in its 1-star statewide ranking, placing it in the bottom 20% of Arizona elementary schools.

When compared to other nearby elementary schools in the Yuma Elementary District, such as C.W. McGraw Elementary, George Washington Carver Elementary, and O.C. Johnson School, it becomes clear that Roosevelt School is the lowest-performing school in the district. The school's high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, at 89.49%, likely contributes to its academic challenges, despite its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 17.1.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
