Most rating sites report "63% proficient" for Saint Helena Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
34.8% of students exceeded standard while 28.7% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 13.8 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 8.8 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
