Summary

Pine Bluffs Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in Pine Bluffs, Wyoming, with 170 students currently enrolled. The school is part of the Laramie County School District #2, which is ranked 27th out of 43 school districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Pine Bluffs Elementary consistently outperforms the district and state in standardized test scores, with 82.6% of 3rd graders proficient or better in ELA compared to 64.4% for the district and 53.1% for the state. The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 10:1 to 13.6:1, and spends more per student than the state average, which may contribute to its strong academic performance. However, the school has a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 36.27% to 44.12%, suggesting the need for additional resources and support to address the unique needs of this population.

Interestingly, the nearby Carpenter Elementary and Albin Elementary schools have even lower student-teacher ratios and higher spending per student, yet Pine Bluffs Elementary maintains its strong academic performance. This suggests that factors beyond just these metrics may be contributing to the school's success in serving its diverse student population.
