Summary:
The 82053 zip code in Wyoming is home to two schools: Burns Junior & Senior High School, serving grades 7-12, and Burns Elementary, serving grades PK-6. While the elementary school is performing closer to the state average, the high school is struggling, with lower test scores and a lower statewide ranking of 53rd out of 80 Wyoming high schools.
Both schools have a significant proportion of students from low-income families, as indicated by the high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients. The high school spends more per student ($19,020) compared to the elementary school ($16,452), which is higher than the state average. However, this additional funding does not seem to be translating into improved student outcomes at the high school level.
The data suggests a need for a deeper understanding of the unique challenges faced by the schools in the 82053 zip code and the development of tailored strategies to enhance educational outcomes for all students in the community. Targeted interventions and resource allocation strategies may help address the disparities and support student success across both the elementary and high school levels.
