What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "46% proficient" for Cutten Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

15.4% of students exceeded standard while 30.9% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 5.6 points below the state average of 21.0%. Compared to the 4 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 5.4 points higher (vs 10.0% 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 11.6 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 10.3%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
