Despite being in operation for several years, Educational Opportunity Center has consistently struggled academically, ranking 452 out of 469 Arizona high schools and receiving 0 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates are significantly below state averages, with 0% proficiency in most subjects. Additionally, the school has very low graduation rates, with only 30.2% of students graduating within 4 years, compared to 90.5% at Kofa High School and 89.7% at Yuma High School, both part of the Yuma Union High School District. The school also struggles with high dropout rates, reaching as high as 30.4% in the 2018-2019 school year.

One potential factor contributing to the school's challenges is the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 91.59% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, significantly higher than the nearby Kofa High School (74.97%) and Yuma High School (79.86%). The consistently low performance of Educational Opportunity Center suggests a need for targeted interventions and support to address the specific challenges faced by the school and its student population.
