What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "32% proficient" for Fairview Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

10.3% of students exceeded standard while 21.3% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 10.7 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's near the Modesto City Elementary district average of 11.0%. Nearby schools (within ~3 miles) average 12.0% 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 14.2 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 7.2%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
