Most rating sites report "51% proficient" for Magnolia Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
23.1% of students exceeded standard while 27.7% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 2.1 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 6.6 points above the Riverside Unified district average of 16.5%. Compared to the 21 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 11.9 points higher (vs 11.2% 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 14.0%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
