Most rating sites report "52% proficient" for Starlight Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
24.8% of students exceeded standard while 27.1% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 3.8 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 3.7 points above the Beaumont Unified district average of 21.1%. Compared to the 6 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 5.0 points higher (vs 19.8% 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 7.1 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
Chronic absenteeism is 13.2%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
