Most rating sites report "35% proficient" for Yucca Mesa Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:

14.1% of students exceeded standard while 21.4% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 6.9 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's near the Morongo Unified district average of 12.6%.
