What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "19% proficient" for Kingsley Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

6.0% of students exceeded standard while 13.0% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 14.9 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's 6.0 points below the Pomona Unified district average of 12.1%. The 28 nearby schools within ~3 miles average 15.9% exceeded — 9.9 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 6.6 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 26.7%, above the state average of 18.7%.
