Most rating sites report "72% proficient" for Cherrywood Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

48.4% of students exceeded standard while 23.4% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 27.4 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 11.3 points above the Berryessa Union Elementary district average of 37.1%. Compared to the 1 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 15.3 points higher (vs 33.1% average).
