What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "54% proficient" for Roy Herburger Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

27.5% of students exceeded standard while 26.3% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 6.5 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 2.7 points above the Elk Grove Unified district average of 24.8%. Compared to the 15 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 6.7 points higher (vs 20.8% 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 20.3 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 18.1%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
