What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "51% proficient" for Stanford Avenue Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

24.2% of students exceeded standard while 27.0% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 3.2 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 3.0 points above the Los Angeles Unified district average of 21.2%. Compared to the 62 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 9.5 points higher (vs 14.7% 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 13.7 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 23.8%, above the state average of 18.7%.
