What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "36% proficient" for Sugar Hill Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

14.2% of students exceeded standard while 21.4% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 6.8 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's 4.3 points above the Moreno Valley Unified district average of 9.9%. Compared to the 11 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 2.3 points higher (vs 11.9% 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 19.6 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 28.2%, above the state average of 18.7%.
