Most rating sites report "50% proficient" for Pachappa Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
22.8% of students exceeded standard while 27.4% merely met it. That exceeded rate is near the state average of 21.0%. That's 6.3 points above the Riverside Unified district average of 16.5%. Compared to the 16 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 11.3 points higher (vs 11.6% average). The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.
