What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "17% proficient" for Highland Pacific Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

3.1% of students exceeded standard while 14.3% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 17.9 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's 6.9 points below the San Bernardino City Unified district average of 10.0%. The 11 nearby schools within ~3 miles average 9.1% exceeded — 6.0 points higher. The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.

Proficiency drops by 0.7 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 33.9%, above the state average of 18.7%.
