What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "84% proficient" for Springhill Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

58.8% of students exceeded standard while 25.0% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 37.8 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's near the Lafayette Elementary district average of 58.8%. Compared to the 8 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 16.0 points higher (vs 42.7% 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 4.0 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 2.3%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
