Roosevelt Elementary School

Summary:

Roosevelt Elementary School is a public elementary school in Livonia, Michigan, serving 381 students in grades PK-4. The school is part of the Livonia Public Schools School District, which is ranked 84 out of 610 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

While Roosevelt Elementary has a higher percentage of white students (77.69%) compared to nearby schools, it faces several challenges. The school has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 5.1% in 2017-2018 to 26.6% in 2022-2023, notably higher than the 16.6% rate at Coolidge Elementary School. Additionally, Roosevelt's proficiency rates in M-Step English Language Arts and Math for 3rd and 4th grades are generally lower than the Livonia Public Schools District and the state of Michigan averages. For example, in 2023-2024, Roosevelt's 3rd-grade ELA proficiency was 44.7% compared to the district's 58.4% and the state's 39.6%.

Despite having the highest per-student spending ($18,065) among the nearby schools, Roosevelt Elementary's academic performance, as measured by test scores and statewide rankings, is not commensurate with the level of investment. The school's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past several years, from 275 out of 1,153 Michigan elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 478 out of 1,486 in 2023-2024. When compared to nearby schools, such as Buchanan Elementary School and Coolidge Elementary School, Roosevelt Elementary generally underperforms in terms of test scores and statewide rankings, suggesting the need for a closer examination of the school's resource allocation and instructional practices.

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.
