Summary:
The 82601 zip code in Wyoming is home to a single public high school, Natrona County High School, which serves grades 9-12 and is part of the Natrona County School District #1. While the school has a relatively high spending per student of $17,274 and a student-teacher ratio of 15.1 to 1, its academic performance has been a concern, with proficiency rates on state assessments generally below district and state averages, particularly in mathematics.
Natrona County High School's statewide ranking has declined over the past few years, going from 58th out of 80 Wyoming high schools in 2022-2023 to 62nd out of 83 in 2024-2025, with a consistent 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's four-year graduation rate for the 2023-2024 school year was 81.6%, which is lower than the state average. Additionally, the school serves a relatively high-need population, with 33.7% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024.
Despite the high spending per student, the data suggests that Natrona County High School is facing challenges in terms of academic performance and statewide ranking. The school and district may need to examine their strategies and interventions to address these issues and improve student outcomes.
