What other rankings don't show you
Most rating sites report "24% proficient" for Ronald E. McNair High and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
7.4% of students exceeded standard while 16.4% met it. That exceeded rate is 8.1 points below the state average of 15.5%. That's 6.8 points below the Lodi Unified district average of 14.3%. Nearby schools (within ~3 miles) average 6.9% exceeded — about the same. The gap between "met" and "exceeded" can reveal how much a school's curriculum challenges students beyond proficiency.
The graduation rate is 87.8%. 27.4% of students complete A-G requirements for UC/CSU eligibility. 66.3% of graduates go on to college within a year.
Chronic absenteeism is 31.5%, better than the state average of 34.0%.
