Most rating sites report "48% proficient" for Killian Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
26.1% of students exceeded standard while 22.2% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 5.1 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 9.4 points above the Rowland Unified district average of 16.7%. Compared to the 17 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 4.0 points higher (vs 22.1% average). The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.

Chronic absenteeism is 11.7%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
