Summary
Hulett School is an alternative K–12 school in Hulett, Wyoming, serving 168 students in Crook County. In 2025–2026, its average grade-level proficiency was above the state average in English language arts (ELA), math, and science, but results varied sharply by grade. The most important finding is that an overall average can hide substantial differences, especially in ELA, where proficiency ranged from 31% in 7th grade to 88% in 8th grade.
There are no other schools within 20 miles, so nearby-school comparisons are not available. Compared with the state, Hulett’s 2025–2026 averages were higher in all three subjects: ELA was 64% versus 57%, math 61% versus 55%, and science 58% versus 53%. But each average was below the Crook County School District #1: Hulett was 2 points lower in ELA, 6 points lower in math, and 4 points lower in science. ELA was strongest relative to both comparison groups. Individual grades tell a more mixed story: 7th-grade ELA was 31%, below the state’s 57% and district’s 72%, while 8th-grade ELA was 88%, above the state’s 61% and district’s 69%.
Results have improved since 2023–2024, although the latest year was not uniformly stronger. For comparable grades, Hulett’s averages rose 16 points in ELA, 22 in math, and 27 in science by 2025–2026; ELA and math dipped slightly from the prior year, while science continued to rise. Graduation rates have been less encouraging: the rate fell from 92% in 2020–2021 to 73% in 2024–2025, below the latest district rate of 87% and state rate of 83%. For context, Hulett’s student–teacher ratio was 8.7 in 2024–2025, and 48% of students were eligible for free/reduced lunch that school year. SchoolDigger ranks the district 9th of 44 in Wyoming, at the 80th percentile with four stars; those are district ratings, not ratings for Hulett.
