Most rating sites report "24% proficient" for D. H. White Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
7.7% of students exceeded standard while 16.5% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 13.3 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's 7.1 points below the River Delta Joint Unified district average of 14.8%. The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.
Proficiency drops by 15.5 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
Chronic absenteeism is 29.1%, above the state average of 18.7%.
