I would never suggest this school to anyone and I do mean anyone..it is horrible

I am a parent that currently has a student at Roosevelt. I feel it had vastly improved over the years. I attend every parent-teacher conference, email, have one on one talks with the teachers and other staff and everyone I’ve encountered have been very pleasant and helpful. The teachers really want to teach and guide and not just show up for work. I believe the school is overall getting better and offers a lot of opportunities for students for college, trade schools, and social/emotional growth.

There's a reason we all call the educators, staff, students and families at Adams Elementary "the Adams Family." I think the "2" rating on this site could not be more wrong. Adams is such a welcoming place, with teachers who are dedicated to academic growth but also social-emotional wellbeing and overall health and wellness. In the past 5 years, both preschool teachers and the PE teacher have been named "best in SLPS" in their teaching areas. We love the community garden too, and the partnership with the Boys and Girls Club that shares the building. The school was one of only 77 in the entire nation in 2019 to be awarded a silver designation as one of "America's Healthiest Schools" by the Alliance for a Healthier Generation. The St. Louis University PRiME Center growth scores in math and language arts at Adams for students from marginalized groups are some of the highest in the area, public or charter. We love that it's a Saint Louis Public Schools neighborhood school with that neighborhood feel - the families living close by, in community together.
