What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "55% proficient" for Washington Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

23.1% of students exceeded standard while 32.3% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 2.2 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 2.3 points above the Kings Canyon Joint Unified district average of 20.8%. Compared to the 6 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 2.7 points higher (vs 20.4% average). The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.

Students here improve by 4.8 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5, suggesting the school is adding value beyond what students arrive with.

Chronic absenteeism is 1.0%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
