Most rating sites report "23% proficient" for Dana Gray Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
7.5% of students exceeded standard while 15.0% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 13.4 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 5.0 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
Chronic absenteeism is 28.0%, above the state average of 18.7%.
