Summary

Douglas Upper Elementary School serves 251 students in grades 4–5 in Douglas, Wyoming. Its 2025–26 SchoolDigger standing was 108th of 148 schools statewide, in the 27th percentile and rated one star. The key takeaway is that fourth-grade science is a bright spot above the state, while ELA and math results are below state levels.

Science is the school’s strongest tested subject compared with the state: fourth-grade proficiency was 58%, versus 56% statewide, and close to the district’s 58%. Math is the clearest weakness relative to the state: the equal-grade average was 55% at Douglas Upper, compared with 62% statewide, though it was close to the district average. ELA was also below the state in both grades: fourth grade scored 47% versus 53% statewide, and fifth grade scored 55% versus 61%. Among nearby schools with reported student-teacher ratios, Douglas Upper’s ratio of 11 was highest; the next-highest was 10.4 at Douglas Intermediate School. In 2024–25, 48% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, between Douglas Intermediate School at 47% and Douglas Primary School at 61%. Nearby test results do not support reliable same-grade comparisons.

Results have improved in some areas, but progress differs by grade and subject. Fourth-grade science rose from 46% in 2022–23 to 58% in 2025–26, moving from below to above the state. Fourth-grade ELA rose 13 points over that period, while fifth-grade ELA rose 4; fourth-grade math gained 11 points, but fifth-grade math fell 7 points. SchoolDigger’s overall percentile has declined from 84 in 2017–18 to 27 in 2025–26, despite recent gains in some test results. Its student-group rankings show a notable contrast: SchoolDigger’s measure of how well the school serves students in the Low Socio Economic Status Students group was at the 62nd percentile in 2025–26, compared with the school’s overall 27th percentile. For Hispanic students, the measure fell from the 38th percentile in 2023–24 to the 14th in 2025–26.
