Farson-Eden Middle School

Summary:

Farson-Eden Middle School is a public middle school located in Farson, Wyoming, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 40 students. The school is part of the Sweetwater County School District #1, which is ranked 32 out of 42 districts in Wyoming and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Farson-Eden Middle School has shown strong academic performance, ranking 16th out of 74 Wyoming middle schools in the 2023-2024 school year and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has consistently outperformed the district and state in several academic areas, particularly in mathematics and science. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, Farson-Eden had 64.3%, 70.6%, and 69.2% of students proficient or better in 6th, 7th, and 8th-grade mathematics, respectively, compared to the district's 37%, 44.8%, and 48.5%, and the state's 52.7%, 48.1%, and 49.6%.

Despite the school's strong academic performance, it serves a higher proportion of students from low socioeconomic status (SES) backgrounds compared to the state, ranking 15th out of 61 Wyoming middle schools in this category for the 2023-2024 school year. The school's percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients has increased from 33.33% in 2020-2021 to 40% in 2022-2023, suggesting that the school may need to allocate additional resources and support to address the needs of its economically disadvantaged student population. Additionally, the school's per-student spending and student-teacher ratio have fluctuated over the past few years, which could impact the consistency and quality of educational resources and support available to students.

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.
