Fairview Elementary

Summary:

Fairview Elementary is a public elementary school in Cheyenne, Wyoming, serving grades 3-6 with a total enrollment of 88 students. The school is part of the Laramie County School District #1, which is ranked 29 out of 42 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Fairview Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom third of Wyoming elementary schools over the past several years, with a ranking between 117-132 out of 144-153 schools. The school has maintained a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade, indicating below-average performance compared to other schools in the state. Fairview Elementary consistently underperforms the district and state averages in proficiency rates for ELA and Math on the WY-TOPP assessments, particularly for Hispanic and White student subgroups. However, the school's special education and low socioeconomic status students perform slightly better, ranking in the middle 50% of schools in the state. Despite having a relatively high per-student spending of around $23,700 and a low student-teacher ratio, Fairview Elementary struggles to improve its academic outcomes.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the Laramie County School District #1 generally perform better than Fairview Elementary on academic measures, with higher proficiency rates and better rankings. For example, PODER Academy, a public charter school, stands out with exceptional performance, ranking among the top 5 elementary schools in Wyoming. Other nearby schools, such as Arp Elementary and Sunrise Elementary, also outperform Fairview on most metrics, despite serving similar student populations. These comparisons suggest that there may be systemic challenges or issues within Fairview Elementary or the district that need to be addressed to improve student outcomes.

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.
