Most rating sites report "30% proficient" for Borrego Springs Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
7.7% of students exceeded standard while 22.8% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 13.3 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 9.4 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
Chronic absenteeism is 26.3%, above the state average of 18.7%.
