Roosevelt Elementary

Summary:

Roosevelt Elementary is a public elementary school in Faribault, Minnesota, serving students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. With a diverse student population, the school faces significant academic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom quarter of Minnesota elementary schools.

Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio, Roosevelt Elementary's performance on the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments (MCA-III) is significantly below the state and Faribault Public School District averages in both math and reading. This trend is particularly pronounced among African American and Special Education students, who perform in the bottom 20-25% of their respective subgroups statewide. In contrast, Greenvale Park Elementary, Bridgewater Elementary, and Spring Creek Elementary, which are part of the Northfield Public School District, significantly outperform Roosevelt Elementary and the Faribault district on academic measures.

The high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds at Roosevelt Elementary, coupled with its racial diversity, may be contributing factors to the school's academic struggles. While the school's resources in terms of staffing appear adequate, addressing these systemic issues within the Faribault Public School District, as well as implementing targeted interventions and support for the school's student population, may be necessary to improve the academic outcomes at Roosevelt Elementary.

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.
