Most rating sites report "70% proficient" for Norwood Creek Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
43.9% of students exceeded standard while 26.5% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 22.9 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 7.5 points above the Evergreen Elementary district average of 36.3%. Compared to the 20 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 20.2 points higher (vs 23.7% 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 5.6%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
