What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "59% proficient" for Paddison Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

39.3% of students exceeded standard while 20.0% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 18.3 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 10.2 points above the Little Lake City Elementary district average of 29.1%. Compared to the 24 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 19.6 points higher (vs 19.7% 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 4.7 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 17.2%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
