Summary

West Side Elementary serves 158 students in grades 4–5 in Worland, in Washakie County School District #1. SchoolDigger ranks it 28th of 148 Wyoming elementary schools, at the 81st percentile with 4 stars for 2025–26. Its clearest academic strength is that it scored above the state in every reported grade and subject, especially fifth-grade math: 79% of students met the standard, compared with 61% statewide.

Math is West Side’s strongest subject relative to the state: fourth-grade results were 73% versus 63% statewide, and fifth-grade results were 79% versus 61%. Fourth-grade science was also strong at 69% versus 56%. ELA is more mixed: fourth grade was 67% versus 53% statewide, while fifth grade was 61.8% versus 61.3%, just 0.5 points higher. Reported district results match West Side’s in every grade and subject. Nearby South Side Elementary serves grades 2–3 and East Side Elementary serves K–1, so their test scores do not offer a like-for-like comparison.

Results have improved in several areas over time: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, fifth-grade math rose 24 points and fourth-grade ELA rose 17 points. Fifth-grade ELA, however, fell 1 point, and its advantage over the state narrowed from 8 points to 0.5 points. SchoolDigger’s overall percentile rose from 60 to 81 over that period, though its earlier rankings varied. Its subgroup rankings also differ notably: SchoolDigger places West Side at the 17th percentile for serving students in special education, compared with its overall 81st percentile; its Hispanic-student ranking rose from the 27th percentile in 2023–24 to the 97th in 2025–26. For context, in 2024–25 West Side had 10.6 students per teacher, compared with an average of 9.3 at the nearby schools. Its free/reduced lunch eligible share was 42%, below the nearby-school average of 48%; these are observations, not explanations for results.
