Summary

Afflerbach Elementary is a public elementary school in Cheyenne, Wyoming, serving grades PK-6 with 343 students. The school is part of the Laramie County School District #1, which is ranked 32 out of 43 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Afflerbach Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Wyoming elementary schools, with a ranking of 143 out of 149 schools in the 2024-2025 school year and a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance, particularly in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, is significantly lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 20.3% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA, compared to 50.8% in the district and 53.1% statewide. Afflerbach Elementary's performance has been consistently poor, with proficiency rates often in the bottom quarter or third of Wyoming elementary schools.

While Afflerbach Elementary spends a relatively high amount per student and has a low student-teacher ratio, its academic outcomes remain poor, suggesting the school may not be effectively utilizing its resources. Interestingly, nearby schools such as Alta Vista Elementary, PODER Academy, and Bain Elementary have higher proficiency rates and better overall rankings, despite serving similar student populations. Further investigation into Afflerbach Elementary's instructional practices, curriculum, and support systems may be necessary to identify areas for improvement and help the school better serve its students.
