Summary:
The Niobrara County School District #1 in Wyoming consists of 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data reveals a significant disparity in academic performance across the schools, with Niobrara County High School standing out as the strongest performer in the district.
Niobrara County High School ranks 49th out of 80 Wyoming high schools and has maintained a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, the highest in the district. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics for 9th and 10th grades are generally higher than the district and state averages. In contrast, Lusk Elementary and Lusk Middle School have consistently low proficiency rates in these subjects compared to the state averages.
The data also reveals unique challenges faced by the small Lance Creek Elementary school, which has only 7 students and an exceptionally low student-teacher ratio of 3.5. This school also has the highest per-student spending at $37,405, nearly double the spending at the other schools in the district. The consistent low rankings and 1-star ratings from SchoolDigger for Lusk Elementary, Lusk Middle School, and the overall district indicate a need for a comprehensive review of the district's educational strategies and resource allocation.
