Summary
Jessup Elementary is a K–4 school with 118 students in Cheyenne, within Laramie County School District #1. Its 2025–2026 SchoolDigger ranking was 14th of 148 Wyoming schools, in the 91st percentile with 5 stars. The clearest takeaway for families is that Jessup’s latest test results were well above state and district averages in every reported subject: averaging grades 3 and 4, students reached 72% proficiency in ELA and 76% in math, while grade 4 science proficiency was 71%.
ELA, especially in grade 3, is Jessup’s strongest result compared with nearby schools: 82% of third graders were proficient, the highest score among the 10 nearby schools reporting that grade. Jessup also ranked third locally in both reported math grades. Its results were not the local best in every area, however: fourth-grade ELA and science each ranked fourth among the 11-school comparison group. Against the state, Jessup’s average proficiency was 18 percentage points higher in ELA and 14 points higher in math; grade 4 science was 15 points higher. Compared with the district, the advantages were 20 points in ELA, 19 in math, and 19 in science.
Results remain strong, but they have pulled back from a high point in 2024–2025. Compared with 2022–2023, Jessup’s average results are up 10 points in ELA, 7 in math, and 12 in science, yet all three subjects declined from the previous year’s peak. Fourth-grade ELA fell 22 points, from 84% to 63%, though it remains 10 points above the state result. Jessup’s SchoolDigger statewide percentile fell 8 points from the prior year’s 99th percentile, but it is still second among Jessup and the 10 nearby schools, behind PODER Academy. The school’s 10.1 student-teacher ratio in 2024–2025 was below the nearby-school average of 13. In 2024–2025, 15% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, compared with a nearby-school average of 38%; this is context, not an explanation for achievement. One notable subgroup trend is that SchoolDigger’s ranking for how well Jessup serves Low Socio Economic Status Students rose from the 24th percentile in 2022–2023 to the 93rd percentile in 2024–2025.
