What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "52% proficient" for Marvin Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

31.8% of students exceeded standard while 20.5% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 10.8 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 10.6 points above the Los Angeles Unified district average of 21.2%. Compared to the 24 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 5.3 points higher (vs 26.5% 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 3.5 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 18.6%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
