Most rating sites report "51% proficient" for La Rosa Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
22.3% of students exceeded standard while 28.2% merely met it. That exceeded rate is near the state average of 21.0%. That's 11.2 points above the Ceres Unified district average of 11.1%. Compared to the 13 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 12.7 points higher (vs 9.7% 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 18.2%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
