Most rating sites report "66% proficient" for Meadow Green Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
37.9% of students exceeded standard while 28.0% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 16.9 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 11.7 points above the Lowell Joint district average of 26.2%. Compared to the 23 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 9.8 points higher (vs 28.1% 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 15.5 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
Chronic absenteeism is 8.4%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
