What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "31% proficient" for Silverado High and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

10.4% of students exceeded standard while 20.9% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 5.1 points below the state average of 15.5%. That's 7.3 points below the Victor Valley Union High district average of 17.7%. The 2 nearby schools within ~3 miles average 44.7% exceeded — 34.3 points higher. The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.

The graduation rate is 89.0%. 50.6% of students complete A-G requirements for UC/CSU eligibility — a strong college readiness signal. 65.4% of graduates go on to college within a year.

Chronic absenteeism is 22.9%, better than the state average of 34.0%.
