Most rating sites report "61% proficient" for Hurley Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
36.4% of students exceeded standard while 24.2% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 15.4 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 19.9 points above the Visalia Unified district average of 16.4%. Compared to the 6 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 11.2 points higher (vs 25.1% 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 6.4 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
Chronic absenteeism is 8.9%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
