What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "30% proficient" for Spring Valley Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

13.4% of students exceeded standard while 16.7% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 7.6 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's 11.6 points below the San Francisco Unified district average of 24.9%. The 27 nearby schools within ~3 miles average 25.9% exceeded — 12.5 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 19.5 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 47.6%, above the state average of 18.7%.
