Roosevelt Elementary

This school is a part of Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District

Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District remains an elite academic performer with an A+ Niche rating and multiple state-level distinctions for its middle and continuation schools. Operationally, the district is undergoing a landmark reorganization to split into two separate entities by 2026, a move supported by both cities to improve local governance. While the district enjoys strong community backing and high teacher quality, it is currently navigating a structural budget deficit and declining enrollment that have triggered staff layoffs and concerns over the erosion of student support services. This fiscal tightening and structural transition place the district in a stable but transitional phase, balancing prestige with significant organizational change.
