Most rating sites report "26% proficient" for Arthur E. Mills Intermediate and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
8.3% of students exceeded standard while 18.0% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 12.7 points below the state average of 21.0%. The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.
Proficiency drops by 2.6 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
