What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "75% proficient" for Canyon View Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

48.9% of students exceeded standard while 25.8% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 27.9 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 2.5 points above the Poway Unified district average of 46.4%. Compared to the 14 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 2.4 points higher (vs 46.5% average). The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.

Proficiency drops by 8.6 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 8.0%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
