Summary:
Fremont County School District #1 in Wyoming has only one middle school, Lander Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 39th out of 74 middle schools in 2023-2024 to 57th out of 74 in 2022-2023.
Lander Middle School's academic proficiency on the WY-TOPP assessments is mixed, with some grade levels and subject areas exceeding the state average, while others fall below. The school's per-student spending is relatively high at $18,609, and it has a low student-teacher ratio of 13:1. However, the school's free and reduced-price lunch rate of 28.33% suggests that a significant portion of the student population may come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, which could have implications for the school's ability to address their unique needs and ensure equitable educational opportunities.
Overall, while Fremont County School District #1 has only one middle school, the data indicates that Lander Middle School's performance is inconsistent, with both strengths and areas for improvement. The school's high spending and low student-teacher ratio suggest it is well-resourced, but the mixed academic proficiency and potential equity concerns warrant further investigation to understand how these resources are being utilized to support student achievement.
