What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "31% proficient" for Oleander Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

10.9% of students exceeded standard while 20.1% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 10.1 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's near the Fontana Unified district average of 12.2%. Nearby schools (within ~3 miles) average 12.5% exceeded — about the same. The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.

Proficiency drops by 16.2 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 30.4%, above the state average of 18.7%.
