The verdict

Palatine High School: 1.3 TCR = 93% of industry BLS 1.4 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Palatine High School safety composite

Palatine High School scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 88% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 48%), 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).
