Most rating sites report "45% proficient" for Liberty Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
18.2% of students exceeded standard while 26.9% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 2.7 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's 4.8 points above the Kerman Unified district average of 13.5%. Compared to the 3 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 6.1 points higher (vs 12.1% 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 11.7 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
Chronic absenteeism is 14.8%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
