Summary:
Big Horn County School District #1 in Wyoming is home to two high schools: Burlington High School and Rocky Mountain High School. While both schools serve students in grades 9-12, the data analysis reveals a significant performance gap between the two, with Burlington High School consistently ranking among the top high schools in Wyoming and Rocky Mountain High School performing in the middle to lower range.
Burlington High School stands out as a top-performing school, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and outperforming the district and state averages in proficiency rates for WY-TOPP assessments in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. The school's small size and low student-teacher ratio may contribute to its exceptional academic performance. In contrast, Rocky Mountain High School has consistently lower proficiency rates compared to the district and state averages.
The data also reveals potential equity concerns within the district, as Burlington High School has a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch compared to Rocky Mountain High School. This suggests the need for further investigation into the distribution of resources and support for economically disadvantaged students across the Big Horn County School District #1.
