What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "35% proficient" for El Dorado Avenue Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

19.0% of students exceeded standard while 15.6% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 2.0 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's 2.2 points below the Los Angeles Unified district average of 21.2%. Nearby schools (within ~3 miles) average 20.7% exceeded — about the same. The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.

Proficiency drops by 6.5 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 27.2%, above the state average of 18.7%.
