Most rating sites report "75% proficient" for Westpark Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
52.5% of students exceeded standard while 22.4% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 31.5 points above the state average of 21.0%. That's 5.5 points above the Irvine Unified district average of 47.0%. Compared to the 16 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 12.8 points higher (vs 39.7% 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 3.6 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.
Chronic absenteeism is 11.7%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
