What other rankings don't show you

Most rating sites report "40% proficient" for Yokayo Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

17.4% of students exceeded standard while 22.7% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 3.6 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's 6.2 points above the Ukiah Unified district average of 11.2%. Compared to the 5 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 7.5 points higher (vs 9.9% 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 11.8 percentage points from grade 3 to grade 5 — a signal that the school may not be sustaining early gains.

Chronic absenteeism is 17.4%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
