How Roosevelt Elementary School compares with North Dakota and U.S. medians
What stands out at Roosevelt Elementary School
Roosevelt Elementary School is a mid-sized combined-grade school in Minot, North Dakota, enrolling 175 students.
Class loads run heavy: 17.5:1 is larger than about 94% of North Dakota schools and 48% above the 11.8:1 state mean, so each teacher carries more students than is typical.
Its free-meal eligibility rate of 26.7% lands close to the North Dakota typical range, neither a high- nor low-need campus by this measure.
With 175 students, its enrollment sits close to the North Dakota median campus size.
Its Resource Investment Index trails 91% of the 498 North Dakota schools with a score on record, one of the lower results on this measure.
Among 112 similarly sized, similarly resourced-need North Dakota schools statewide, it ranks #108, in the lower tier once campus size and economic need are matched.
Its student body is led by White (59%) and Hispanic or Latino (18%), more mixed than most schools in the state (diversity index 60/100).
Counselor access is stretched at roughly 438 students per counselor, well above the ASCA-recommended 250:1 ceiling.
16.6% of students were chronically absent in the 2021-22 collection, in line with the post-pandemic national range.
Its district draws 15.2% of revenue from federal sources, an above-typical federal share that tends to track a higher-need student population.
Among Minot's public schools, it stands alongside John Hoeven Elementary School (504 students): Roosevelt Elementary School is smaller than that campus by headcount and runs leaner classes (17.5:1 vs 18.7:1).
Minot 1 also operates Magic City Campus High School (1,086 students) and Central Campus School (1,085 students) alongside Roosevelt Elementary School.
