Summary:
The 82082 zip code area is home to two schools - Pine Bluffs Elementary and Pine Bluffs Junior & Senior High School, both part of the Laramie County School District #2. While Pine Bluffs Elementary has consistently ranked in the top half of Wyoming elementary schools and maintains strong academic performance, the high school has had a more mixed record, with its ranking dropping in the current school year.
Pine Bluffs Elementary stands out as the stronger of the two schools, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and test scores that exceed district and state averages, particularly in mathematics. The school spends $17,355 per student and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.6, which likely contributes to its academic success. In contrast, Pine Bluffs Junior & Senior High School is only rated 1 out of 5 stars and has seen its ranking drop to 57th out of 80 Wyoming high schools, despite previously ranking 32nd.
The data suggests that the Laramie County School District #2 as a whole may be facing challenges, as it is ranked 35th out of 42 districts in Wyoming and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. This could be a contributing factor to the performance disparity between the elementary and high school, and indicates that the district may need to allocate more resources and targeted interventions to help improve student outcomes, particularly at the high school level.
