Most rating sites would stop at “43% proficient” and call it done. Opportunities for Learning - Duarte deserves a closer read. The school sits in Duarte, where three in four students qualify for free or reduced lunch — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.

As a charter, Opportunities for Learning - Duarte enrolls by application, not address — the score reads the same, the enrollment path doesn't.
