What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "30% proficient" for North Country Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

10.1% of students exceeded standard while 19.8% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 10.8 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's near the Center Joint Unified district average of 10.9%. The 19 nearby schools within ~3 miles average 15.1% exceeded — 5.0 points higher. The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.

Proficiency drops by 23.5 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 18.8%, above the state average of 18.7%.
