Most rating sites would stop at “12% proficient” and call it done. Oakview High (Alternative) deserves a closer read. The school sits in Anderson, where more than half of students qualify for free or reduced lunch — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.
Test scores are one lens, and at this school they're a rough one right now. The sections below show the fuller picture — including the parts that are working.
