Most rating sites report "66% proficient" for Glenwood Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
42.4% of students exceeded standard while 24.0% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 21.4 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 20.8 points above the San Rafael City Elementary district average of 21.6%. Compared to the 2 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 38.8 points higher (vs 3.6% average). The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.
