Brookside Elementary safety composite

Brookside Elementary scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 78% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 29%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).

Brookside Elementary has fewer employees than the K-5 Elementary School median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.8.
