Campbell County School District #1

Summary:

The Campbell County School District #1 in Wyoming operates 23 schools, including 17 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 4 high schools, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. The district as a whole is ranked 29 out of 43 districts in the state and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Within the district, there is a significant variation in school performance. Pronghorn Elementary and Wagonwheel Elementary stand out as top-performing schools, ranking 35th and 24th in the state, respectively, and earning 4-star ratings from SchoolDigger. These schools excel in both English Language Arts and Mathematics, with over 70% of students proficient or better in many grade levels. In contrast, some schools, such as Meadowlark Elementary and Cottonwood Elementary, struggle academically.

The district's high schools also show a range of performance, with Wright Junior & Senior High School ranking 16th in the state and earning a 4-star rating, while other high schools perform closer to the state average. Additionally, the district's smallest and most rural schools, such as Recluse School and Little Powder Elementary, face unique challenges in providing a high-quality education despite their high per-student spending.
