Another way to do it:
. sysuse auto, clear
(1978 Automobile Data)
. egen mean = mean(mpg) , by(rep78)
. egen group = group(mean rep78)
(5 missing values generated)
. replace group = -group
(69 real changes made)
. labmask group, values(rep78)
etc.
Notes:
1. The two arguments to -group()- are needed because there might be ties on -mean-.
2. -labmask- is written up in
SJ-8-2 gr0034 . . . . . . . . . . Speaking Stata: Between tables and graphs
(help labmask, seqvar if installed) . . . . . . . . . . . . N. J. Cox
Q2/08 SJ 8(2):269--289
outlines techniques for producing table-like graphs

One way to do it is with the -egen- function -axis()- from -egenmore- on SSC.
. sysuse auto
(1978 Automobile Data)
. egen mean = mean(mpg) , by(rep78)
. egen axis = axis(mean rep78), label(rep78) reverse
(5 missing values generated)
. scatter mpg weight , by(axis)
In your case, I think you need
egen axis = axis(adv_avg school_name), reverse label(school_name)

I have been using the below command to generate graphs for different schools. The graphs appear in alphabetical order of school_name, where I'd rather them be in order of their adv_avg value (highest to lowest). Is there a way to do this?
twoway (connected adv year if group=="All Students", sort) (line adv_avg year if group=="All Students", sort), ytitle(% Proficient and Above) ///
xtitle(Years) by(, title(All Students)) by(school_name, style(compact))
