Summary

Riverton Middle School is a public middle school in Riverton, Wyoming, serving 599 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Fremont County School District #25, which is ranked 34 out of 43 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Riverton Middle School's performance has been inconsistent, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between 49th out of 77 middle schools in 2024-2025 and as low as 66th out of 76 in 2018-2019. Compared to the nearby Wyoming Indian Middle School, which has consistently ranked among the lowest in the state, Riverton Middle School performs significantly better, ranking 28 spots higher in 2024-2025. However, the school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with Hispanic and Multi-racial students performing relatively well, while Native American, Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status students struggle.

Despite spending significantly more per student ($20,471 in 2023-2024) compared to the state average and having a relatively small class size, Riverton Middle School's academic proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are generally below the state averages. This suggests that the school may need to re-evaluate how it allocates and utilizes its resources to better support student learning and address the equity concerns within the school.
