Summary:

The Carbon County School District #2 in Wyoming is home to three elementary schools: Saratoga Elementary, Hanna Elementary, and Medicine Bow Elementary. These schools serve students from kindergarten through 5th grade in the region.

Among the three schools, Saratoga Elementary stands out as the highest-performing, ranking 81 out of 149 Wyoming elementary schools in the 2024-2025 school year. It consistently outperforms the district and state averages in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency across grade levels, while spending the least per student at $21,989. In contrast, Hanna Elementary struggles with lower proficiency rates compared to the district and state, particularly in ELA. The smallest school, Medicine Bow Elementary, has the highest spending per student at $33,556 but lacks recent statewide ranking data.

The analysis suggests an inverse relationship between spending and performance, with the higher-performing Saratoga Elementary spending the least per student. This highlights the importance of factors beyond just funding, such as school size and student demographics, in driving academic outcomes. The smaller schools, Hanna Elementary and Medicine Bow Elementary, face unique challenges in providing quality education to their higher-poverty student populations.
