Roosevelt High School - Early College Studies

Summary:

Roosevelt High School - Early College Studies is a public magnet high school located in Yonkers, NY, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 1,041 students. The school is part of the Yonkers City School District, which is ranked 645 out of 865 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Roosevelt High School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York high schools, its performance varies significantly across different student subgroups. The school ranks highly for English Language Learner students, but struggles with other subgroups, such as White students. In terms of academic performance, the school generally performs below the Yonkers City School District and New York state averages, particularly in mathematics, where proficiency rates are well below the district and state. However, the school does outperform some nearby public high schools, such as Gorton High School and Mount Vernon High School, in certain subject areas.

Roosevelt High School's challenges extend beyond academics, with high rates of chronic absenteeism ranging from 34.1% to 62.5% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average. Despite the school's relatively high per-student funding, ranging from $16,366 to $18,868 per student in recent years, the additional resources have not yet translated into significant improvements in student outcomes. Addressing the school's socioeconomic factors, which include a very high percentage of students (over 80%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, may be crucial to improving the school's performance and supporting its diverse student population.

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.
