Most rating sites would stop at “62% proficient” and call it done. Summit Public School: Shasta deserves a closer read. The school sits in Daly City, where one in four students qualify for free or reduced lunch — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.

The headline number: 66.7% of low-income students met the ELA standard — versus 38.2% for the same group statewide.

As a charter, Summit Public School: Shasta enrolls by application, not address — the score reads the same, the enrollment path doesn't.
