Most rating sites report "74% proficient" for Concordia Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
43.1% of students exceeded standard while 30.5% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 22.1 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 4.1 points above the Capistrano Unified district average of 39.0%. Compared to the 3 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 12.7 points higher (vs 30.4% 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 25.4 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
Chronic absenteeism is 16.5%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
