  { _id: 2, student: 'Bob', scores: [false, 0, false] },
  { _id: 3, student: 'Ivy', scores: [false, true, 0] }
])

Query example

db.grades.aggregate([
  {
    $project: {
      student: 1,
      isAnyTrue: { $anyElementTrue: ["$scores"] },
      _id: 0
    }
  }
])

Output

[
  { student: 'Tim', isAnyTrue: false },
  { student: 'Bob', isAnyTrue: false },
  { student: 'Ivy', isAnyTrue: true }
]
