What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "42% proficient" for Bassett Senior High and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

22.9% of students exceeded standard while 19.1% met it. That exceeded rate is 7.4 points above the state average of 15.5%. That's 9.9 points above the Bassett Unified district average of 13.0%. Compared to the 8 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 10.6 points higher (vs 12.2% average). The gap between "met" and "exceeded" can reveal how much a school's curriculum challenges students beyond proficiency.

Chronic absenteeism is 25.4%, better than the state average of 34.0%.
