Summary:
Shoshoni, Wyoming, has three public schools serving students from prekindergarten through grade 12: Shoshoni Elementary (PK–6), Shoshoni Junior High School (7–8), and Shoshoni High School (9–12), all in Fremont County School District #24. The latest results show a varied picture: elementary averages are close to Wyoming’s, high school is mixed, and junior high has the clearest shortfall. The most important concern for families is grade 8, where junior-high ELA was 22.8 percentage points below the state.
Shoshoni Elementary stands out for the strongest grade-span averages: 57.2% in ELA and 59.4% in math, compared with state averages of 57.6% and 60.4%. Its grade 3 math result, 81.3%, was the area’s highest and 20.1 points above state, though grade 6 math was much lower at 37.9%. Shoshoni Junior High is lowest relative to state in ELA: its two-grade average was 12.2 points below state, with grade 8 especially weak; grade 7 math, however, was 7.1 points above state. Shoshoni High School is not uniformly strong or weak: its ELA average was 8.9 points below state, while grade 10 science was 6.0 points above.
Across matched grade and subject results, the schools’ average gap to Wyoming narrowed from about 4.6 points below state in 2024–2025 to 3.0 points below in 2025–2026, but changes differed: elementary grade 3 math climbed 34.2 points, while high-school ELA fell 7.0 points on average. SchoolDigger rankings also varied: junior high declined from the 64th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 32nd in 2025–2026; elementary rebounded to the 45th percentile, and high school rose to the 47th. Student-teacher ratios were 10.3 at elementary, 7.2 at junior high, and 9.7 at high school; reported free/reduced-lunch eligibility was 16.2%, 24.3%, and 13.8%, respectively. These figures offer context, not an explanation for achievement.
