What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "29% proficient" for TownGate Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

11.7% of students exceeded standard while 17.4% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 9.2 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's near the Moreno Valley Unified district average of 9.9%. Compared to the 14 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 3.8 points higher (vs 8.0% 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 5.7 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 31.9%, above the state average of 18.7%.
