Rawlins High School

Summary:

Rawlins High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Rawlins, Wyoming, with a total enrollment of 422 students. The school is part of the Carbon County School District #1, which is ranked 10th out of 42 districts in Wyoming and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Rawlins High School has shown mixed performance on standardized tests, with proficiency rates in WY-TOPP English Language Arts and Mathematics slightly above the state average but below the district average. However, the school's proficiency rates in WY-TOPP Science for 10th grade were on par with the district and above the state average. The school has also demonstrated notable strengths in the performance of specific student subgroups, ranking highly among Wyoming high schools for its male students, Hispanic students, white students, English Language Learners, special education students, and low socioeconomic status students. Additionally, Rawlins High School has seen a steady increase in its per-student spending, rising from $16,584 in the 2019-2020 school year to $20,063 in the 2022-2023 school year, which is higher than the state average.

Interestingly, Victory High School, another school in the Carbon County School District #1, has a much smaller enrollment of 56 students and a higher student-teacher ratio of 26.6, in contrast to Rawlins High School's relatively low student-teacher ratio ranging from 13.4 to 14 students per teacher over the past three school years. This stark contrast in size and resources may indicate the need for a closer examination of the educational opportunities and outcomes for students at both schools within the same district.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
