What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "71% proficient" for Hope Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

39.4% of students exceeded standard while 31.9% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 18.4 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 5.9 points below the Carlsbad Unified district average of 45.3%. Compared to the 8 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 6.2 points higher (vs 33.1% average). The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.

Proficiency drops by 6.7 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 10.8%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
