Most rating sites report "56% proficient" for Faylane Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
32.4% of students exceeded standard while 23.8% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 11.4 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 3.5 points above the Garden Grove Unified district average of 28.9%. Compared to the 39 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 10.1 points higher (vs 22.3% average). The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.
