The verdict

Elem runs at 222% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical K-12 Education workplace, earning a grade F.

Elem: 3.1 TCR = 222% of K-12 Education BLS 1.4 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Elem safety composite

Elem scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 79% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).
