Most rating sites report "45% proficient" for Hazel Fischer Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
19.6% of students exceeded standard while 25.8% merely met it. That exceeded rate is near the state average of 21.0%. That's 4.9 points below the Vallecito Union district average of 24.5%. The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.
Proficiency drops by 2.2 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
Chronic absenteeism is 25.1%, above the state average of 18.7%.
