Most rating sites report "77% proficient" for Valley View Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
55.7% of students exceeded standard while 21.7% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 34.7 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 22.3 points above the Glendale Unified district average of 33.4%. Compared to the 9 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 14.6 points higher (vs 41.1% 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 1.3 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
Chronic absenteeism is 3.5%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
