What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "63% proficient" for Henry and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

37.1% of students exceeded standard while 25.8% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 16.1 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 12.3 points above the Long Beach Unified district average of 24.8%. Compared to the 26 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 2.2 points higher (vs 35.0% average).
