Best Public Schools in Zip Code 82225


Summary:

The 82225 zip code area of Wyoming is home to 3 schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school - all part of the Niobrara County School District #1. Unfortunately, none of these schools stand out as high-performing, with all three receiving low ratings from SchoolDigger. Lusk Elementary and Lusk Middle School both have 1-star ratings, while Niobrara County High School has a 2-star rating.

Academically, the schools in the 82225 zip code area struggle, with test scores consistently below the state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. Lusk Elementary has particularly low proficiency rates, with only 24-33% of students scoring proficient or better. The high school performs slightly better, but still falls short, with 51-61% proficiency in ELA and 32-39% in Math for 9th and 10th grades.

Factors like high free and reduced lunch rates, especially at Lusk Elementary, and significant differences in per-student spending across the schools, suggest that socioeconomic challenges and resource allocation may be contributing to the district's overall underperformance. The schools' declining statewide rankings over the past few years further highlight the need for the district to address these systemic issues and implement targeted interventions to support student learning and achievement.
