Summary:

The Albany County School District #1 in Wyoming operates 15 schools, including 10 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 3 high schools. The district as a whole is ranked 17 out of 43 districts in Wyoming and is rated 3 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Several schools within the district stand out as top performers, including Slade Elementary, which is ranked 6th out of 146 Wyoming elementary schools and has a 5-star rating. Snowy Range Academy, a public charter elementary/middle school, also ranks 14th out of 149 Wyoming elementary schools and has a 5-star rating. Additionally, Indian Paintbrush Elementary and Spring Creek Elementary are among the top-performing schools in the district, with 4-star ratings and strong academic achievement.

The district's smaller schools, such as Rock River High School and Harmony Elementary, have higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratios, but their academic performance is generally lower compared to the larger, higher-performing schools in the district. This highlights the importance of targeted support and resources to address the challenges faced by economically disadvantaged students and ensure equitable educational opportunities across the district.
