Most rating sites report "80% proficient" for Bryant Ranch Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
54.6% of students exceeded standard while 25.3% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 33.7 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 16.9 points above the Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified district average of 37.7%. Compared to the 2 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 13.7 points higher (vs 40.9% average). The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.
