Summary

Westwood High School is a public high school in Gillette, Wyoming, serving 148 students in grades 9-12. While part of the Campbell County School District #1, which is ranked 29 out of 43 school districts in the state, Westwood High School has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Wyoming high schools over the past decade, receiving a 0 or 1 star rating from SchoolDigger.

Westwood High School's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with male students outperforming female students and white students and low-income students performing poorly on standardized tests. The school's proficiency rates on the WY-TOPP assessments for 10th-grade students are significantly lower than the state and district averages, particularly in mathematics (20% proficient vs. 43.2% state average) and science (35% proficient vs. 49.3% state average). Additionally, the school's four-year graduation rates have been around 80-82%, slightly below the state and district averages.

Despite spending significantly more per student ($23,429 in 2023-2024) compared to the nearby Campbell County High School ($16,594) and Thunder Basin High School ($15,464), Westwood High School's academic outcomes do not appear to be better. This suggests the school may need to re-evaluate its resource allocation and instructional practices to better support student learning and achievement.
