What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "86% proficient" for Adobe Bluffs Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

59.7% of students exceeded standard while 26.0% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 38.7 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 13.3 points above the Poway Unified district average of 46.4%. Compared to the 8 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 7.6 points higher (vs 52.1% average). The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.

Proficiency drops by 19.5 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 6.7%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
