Triumph High School

Summary:

Triumph High School is a public high school in Cheyenne, Wyoming, serving 167 students in grades 9-12. Despite being part of the Laramie County School District #1, which is ranked 29 out of 42 districts in the state, Triumph High School has consistently ranked in the bottom 5-10 high schools in Wyoming over the past several years, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Triumph High School significantly underperforms compared to the district and state averages in standardized test scores. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 22.5% of 10th-grade students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 36.1% for the district and 49% for the state. In math, only 8% of 10th-graders were proficient or better, compared to 30.6% for the district and 41.5% for the state. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, ranking 63rd out of 63 Wyoming high schools for female students and 60th out of 62 for male students in ELA proficiency. Additionally, Triumph High School has a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 58.08% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, significantly higher than nearby Central High School (16.45%) and East High School (30.47%).

Despite the high spending per student at Triumph High School, which is $32,953 in the 2022-2023 school year, the school's performance has not improved. This suggests that factors beyond just funding may be contributing to the school's low academic performance. The nearby PODER Academy Secondary School, a public charter school, significantly outperforms Triumph High School and the district in academic metrics, indicating that alternative educational models may be more effective in this context. Overall, Triumph High School faces significant challenges in academic performance, and a comprehensive review of the school's practices and strategies may be necessary to address these issues.

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.
