Summary

Wyoming Indian Elementary is an elementary school located in Ethete, Wyoming, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 241 students. The school is part of the Fremont County School District #14, which is ranked 43 out of 43 districts in Wyoming and is rated 0 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Despite spending significantly more per student ($33,639 to $37,333 in recent years) compared to the state average and nearby schools, and having a relatively low student-teacher ratio ranging from 8 to 10 students per teacher, Wyoming Indian Elementary consistently ranks among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Wyoming, with rankings between 144-152 out of 144-154 schools over the past decade. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are significantly lower than the state averages, with only 5-15% of students proficient or better in these subjects. This is in stark contrast with the nearby schools, such as Wind River Elementary, Rendezvous Elementary, and Willow Creek Elementary, which have significantly higher proficiency rates and rankings.

The school's poor performance is particularly concerning for certain student subgroups, such as Native American students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, who make up a significant portion of the student body. Wyoming Indian Elementary ranks 3rd out of 3 Wyoming elementary schools for Native American students, with only 3-4 stars out of 5 in recent years, and among the lowest for low socioeconomic status students, with 0 stars out of 5 in recent years. The consistently low performance of the school, despite the higher resources, may indicate deeper systemic issues within the Fremont County School District #14 or the broader educational system in the region.
