Most rating sites report "49% proficient" for Mayo Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
25.7% of students exceeded standard while 23.6% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 4.8 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 5.3 points above the Compton Unified district average of 20.5%. Compared to the 42 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 9.7 points higher (vs 16.0% 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 10.0%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
