Summary:
Fremont County School District #6 in Wyoming is home to two elementary schools: Wind River Elementary and Crowheart Elementary. While Wind River Elementary is the larger and more established school, with 154 students enrolled, Crowheart Elementary has a much smaller enrollment of just 6 students.
Wind River Elementary has a more robust performance history, with state-wide school rankings and test score data available for the past few years. The school has shown improvement in its state-wide ranking, moving from 107th out of 147 Wyoming elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 67th out of 149 in 2024-2025. However, the school's performance dipped in the 2023-2024 school year, with proficiency rates falling below the state average in several grade levels.
Both schools in Fremont County School District #6 have high per-student spending, with Wind River Elementary spending $24,701 per student and Crowheart Elementary spending an even higher $40,437 per student. This raises questions about the efficiency and resource allocation within the district. Additionally, the low student-teacher ratios, especially at Crowheart Elementary, could be a sign of small, potentially unsustainable school sizes within the district.
