What other rankings don't show you
Most rating sites report "37% proficient" for Lilac and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
15.7% of students exceeded standard while 21.4% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 5.3 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's 6.3 points above the Valley Center-Pauma Unified district average of 9.4%. The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.
Proficiency drops by 2.4 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
Chronic absenteeism is 22.9%, above the state average of 18.7%.
