What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "38% proficient" for Chualar Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

15.7% of students exceeded standard while 21.9% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 5.2 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 9.7 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 15.5%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
