Most rating sites would stop at “21% proficient” and call it done. Mayacamas Countywide deserves a closer read. The school sits in Napa, where two in five students qualify for free or reduced lunch — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.

As a charter, Mayacamas Countywide enrolls by application, not address — the score reads the same, the enrollment path doesn't.
