Roosevelt International Middle

Summary:

Roosevelt International Middle is a public middle school located in San Diego, California, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 761 students. It is part of the San Diego Unified School District, which is ranked 604 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Roosevelt International Middle has some areas of strength, it faces several key challenges. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics are generally lower than the San Diego Unified and California state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's ELA proficiency rate was 45.69%, compared to 54.22% for San Diego Unified and 47.04% for California. In Mathematics, the school's proficiency rate was 31.93%, compared to 43.89% for San Diego Unified and 35.54% for California. The school's performance is particularly low for English Language Learner (ELL) students, who ranked in the bottom 10% of California middle schools in 2023-2024. Additionally, Roosevelt International Middle has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 12.4% in 2018-2019 to 32.8% in 2021-2022, which is notably higher than the district and state averages.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Coronado Middle, which consistently outperforms Roosevelt International Middle and the state averages in both ELA and Mathematics proficiency rates, Roosevelt International Middle's academic performance is generally lower. Other nearby schools, such as Montgomery Middle, Millennial Technical Middle, and Wilson Middle, also have lower academic performance compared to Roosevelt International Middle. Addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism and providing targeted interventions and support for the school's Hispanic and English Language Learner student populations could be crucial in improving overall academic outcomes at Roosevelt International Middle.

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.
