Summary:
The city of Guernsey, Wyoming is home to three public schools: Guernsey-Sunrise Elementary, Guernsey-Sunrise High School, and Guernsey-Sunrise Junior High, all of which are part of the Platte County School District #2. Unfortunately, the data suggests that these schools are struggling to provide a high-quality education to their students, with consistently low academic performance and statewide rankings.
Across all three schools, proficiency rates in various subjects and grade levels range from just 13.3% to 46.7%, significantly below the state averages. The schools have consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of their respective school types in Wyoming, with 0-1 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger. Despite the low academic performance, the schools have relatively high spending per student, ranging from $34,680 to $39,123 per student, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the schools have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 45-54%, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage in the community.
The small school sizes, with the high school and junior high having fewer than 100 students each, may present challenges in terms of resources, staffing, and program offerings. Overall, the data suggests that the schools in Guernsey, Wyoming are struggling to provide a high-quality education to their students, and the district may be facing significant challenges in effectively allocating resources and supporting student learning.
