Most rating sites report "63% proficient" for Plaza Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
30.1% of students exceeded standard while 33.2% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 9.1 points above the state average of 21.0%. The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.
Proficiency drops by 23.9 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
Chronic absenteeism is 3.3%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
