GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My experience at Roosevelt Senior High School, was wonderful the staff at Roosevelt is great they truly care about there students, they get you ready for the real world, they make sure that you succeed and be the best person you can be . The wonderful teaching staff I truly believe is the best in the DMV. I would not be the student that I am today with out them. I truly love them and appreciate them, I am truly going to miss them dearly.

The best part was the Special Education Unit and the English Department. The ninth grade academy is a mess along with that despicable Assistant Principal. He has no parental compassion and communication skills

In response to the poster from 2/2014....Having white students does not make nor will it make this school better. As a former teacher of this school I can agree with the opinion that the Principal is ineffective. He was too busy trying to be cool with the students while making conditions for teacher...
