Most rating sites report "61% proficient" for Ramona Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
37.4% of students exceeded standard while 23.3% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 16.4 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 5.2 points above the Alhambra Unified district average of 32.1%. Compared to the 30 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 4.2 points higher (vs 33.1% average). The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.
