What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "76% proficient" for Bonita High and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

46.4% of students exceeded standard while 29.9% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 30.9 points above the state average of 15.5%. That's 8.7 points above the Bonita Unified district average of 37.6%. Compared to the 2 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 39.2 points higher (vs 7.2% average). The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.

The graduation rate is 98.9% — above the state target. 65.8% of students complete A-G requirements for UC/CSU eligibility — a strong college readiness signal. 83.1% of graduates go on to college within a year.

Chronic absenteeism is 10.2%, better than the state average of 34.0%.
