Most rating sites report "77% proficient" for Lincoln Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
47.0% of students exceeded standard while 29.7% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 26.1 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 7.9 points above the Torrance Unified district average of 39.1%. Compared to the 24 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 24.9 points higher (vs 22.1% 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 11.1 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
Chronic absenteeism is 8.0%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
