Summary

Sheridan High School serves 1,001 students in grades 9–12 in Sheridan, Wyoming. Its latest reported test results are well above state averages across every tested grade and subject, making it one of the area’s strongest academic options, although Big Horn High School scored higher in every current comparison where both schools had results.

The school’s strongest relative results are in math and science: its average advantage over the state was 22 points in math and 25 points in science, compared with 16 points in ELA. Across all reported results, it exceeded state rates by 14.0 to 24.8 percentage points and district rates by 1.2 to 3.5 points. It ranked second among the three nearby schools with test results in all five comparisons; for example, grade 10 science was 78% at Sheridan, compared with 85% at Big Horn and 58% at Tongue River High School.

Most results improved between 2022–23 and 2025–26, including grade 9 ELA, grade 10 ELA, grade 9 math and grade 10 science, which rose by about 11 to 18 points. Grade 10 math moved the other way, falling 8 points, and its advantage over the state narrowed by about 10 points.
