Roosevelt Elementary

Q: Is Roosevelt Elementary a good school?

Roosevelt Elementary ranks 269 th of 906 Missouri elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 4 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Roosevelt Elementary is a public elementary school located in Farmington, Missouri, serving grades 1-4 with a total enrollment of 399 students. It is part of the Farmington R-VII school district, which is ranked 83 out of 386 districts in Missouri and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Roosevelt Elementary has shown a mixed performance in state assessments (MAP) over the past few years. While the school has had some strong years, its performance has declined in recent years, ranking 269 out of 906 Missouri elementary schools in 2023-2024. However, the school has generally performed better in mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) assessments compared to the Farmington R-VII district and the state of Missouri, particularly for 4th-grade students. Roosevelt Elementary has also shown strong performance for its low socioeconomic status (SES) students, ranking 63 out of 625 Missouri elementary schools in this category for the 2023-2024 school year, with a 5-star rating. On the other hand, the school's performance for its white student population and disabled student population has been more average.

One area of concern for Roosevelt Elementary is its high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 13.8% to 23.6% over the past few years, which is higher than the state average. This is an issue that the school and district should address to improve student attendance and engagement. When compared to nearby schools in the Farmington R-VII district, such as Jefferson Elementary and Washington-Franklin Elementary, Roosevelt Elementary has generally performed on par or slightly better, particularly in serving its low SES student population. However, when compared to schools outside the district, such as Fredericktown Intermediate and West County Elementary, Roosevelt Elementary's performance is more mixed.

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.
