What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "29% proficient" for Encanto Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

11.1% of students exceeded standard while 18.0% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 9.9 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's 14.2 points below the San Diego Unified district average of 25.3%. The 33 nearby schools within ~3 miles average 14.1% exceeded — 3.0 points higher. The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.

Proficiency drops by 14.2 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 29.4%, above the state average of 18.7%.
