Best High Schools in Zip Code 82901


Summary:

The 82901 zip code area in Wyoming is home to two high schools: Rock Springs High School and Black Butte High School. While the schools share a similar 4-year graduation rate of around 81%, they differ significantly in size, with Rock Springs High School being much larger with 1,466 students compared to Black Butte High School's 102 students.

Both schools are ranked relatively low in the state, with Rock Springs High School ranked 64th out of 83 high schools and Black Butte High School ranked 73rd out of 83 high schools for the 2024-2025 school year. Their academic performance, as measured by WY-TOPP proficiency rates, is also below the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. Interestingly, Black Butte High School spends significantly more per student ($27,276) compared to Rock Springs High School ($18,883), but this higher spending does not seem to translate into better academic outcomes.

The student-teacher ratio also varies greatly between the two schools, with Rock Springs High School having a ratio of 17.9 students per teacher and Black Butte High School having a lower ratio of 9.2 students per teacher. This suggests that the smaller class sizes at Black Butte High School may not be the sole factor in improving student performance. Overall, the high schools in the 82901 zip code area appear to be facing challenges in providing a high-quality education to their students, and further investigation into the root causes of their low performance would be necessary to identify ways to improve student outcomes.
