Most rating sites report "20% proficient" for Sequoia Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
6.0% of students exceeded standard while 13.9% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 15.0 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's 2.2 points below the Manteca Unified district average of 8.2%. The 12 nearby schools within ~3 miles average 9.4% exceeded — 3.4 points higher. The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.
Proficiency drops by 5.3 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
Chronic absenteeism is 23.7%, above the state average of 18.7%.
