What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "35% proficient" for Las Palmas Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

14.4% of students exceeded standard while 20.1% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 6.5 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's near the Twin Rivers Unified district average of 13.0%. Compared to the 19 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 5.6 points higher (vs 8.8% 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 6.0 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 20.4%, above the state average of 18.7%.
