Senior: Jackson Hole High School has been a great experience. The school is constantly growing, some teachers were born and raised here and have come back after their college experiences. I am part of soccer, mountaineering, and other social clubs, and each and every one of them is very inclusive. It is my senior year and I am very pleased with the experience I've gained because of this school, definitely the best in the state!... Read 74 reviews

Senior: Laramie High School offers high quality education in a range of basic subjects which prepare students for the educational challenges approaching in post-secondary life. Counselors and teachers are readily available and care about their students and it certainly shows as they show up early in the mornings and stay later in the evenings to provide any help! Student culture as well as diversity among students is very limited in the sense that the town of Laramie is very tight knit and is rarely exposed to people outside of their own community. This is evident in the classroom and outside of class when students are unfortunately very unaware of other ethnic, religious, and racial lifestyles which leads to a strong clique mentality which many students fall into. Overall, education is very well founded though student culture has much to be desired and expanded upon.... Read 141 reviews

Senior: An awesome school district. I am going to graduate this year and I have been in this district since 1st grade. From elementary, all the way to my senior year, the community, administration, teachers and coaches were a constant support in my growth and education. Wyoming puts a lot of money into their schools and the activities. A great place to go to school and grow up!... Read 194 reviews

Sophomore: I love my school! Although it is relatively small compared to the vast majority of high schools in the nation, I have never felt that there is a lack of opportunity. I am able to be heavily involved in multiple clubs, and because of the small numbers, participation in school sports is highly encouraged and much more obtainable as opposed to bigger schools with more competition. The teachers, coaches, and staff are spectacular and I am always able to find help and support whether I go searching or not. My classmates compete academically, pushing me to become a better student and person, and encouraging me to go the extra mile with every little thing. Everyone is close and friendly because at such a small school we are all friends, which leads to the best learning experience I could ask for. I know this school is preparing me to be successful in the future and with no doubt appreciate the opportunities I have because I attend Saratoga High School!... Read 9 reviews

Senior: It is a school that allows for high school students to take more classes that actually apply to their life after high school. For example, one class is the senior capstone, it is a class that allows for seniors to pick a career they think they are interested in and to be able to research, set up internships, and overall explore that particular career. Something Wind River could do better at is to allow kids to have a work release so that instead of sitting there wasting time in some classes they could be working or doing something that will allow them to become more motivated....

Junior: My experience so far being in K-12 has been fantastic. The teachers are so supportive and they just want to see you reach your full potential. I love how we have assemblies every Thursday because you can see how many kids are in online schooling with you. It’s really amazing how I can move at my own pace and work with my schedule and make things work. It’s honestly fantastic!... Read 7 reviews

Senior: The school can be a wonderful place. With there being such little amounts of students, we are able to receive more one on one time with teachers making learning a better experience. We also are able to develop relationships with teachers in away a normal school is unable to. They supports us as if they are all our den moms haha. They are all the wise owls of the area....

Senior: I absolutely love it in Encampment K-12 School! Due to the low population within the town and the school, it allows the staff to be very helpful towards students. They do a tremendous job whether its a teacher, nurse, principal, or counselor, they give very good 1 on 1 help 24/7. No student is left behind which is one reason we have the best test scores in entire State of Wyoming (Of course we have an advantage with only having 40 students enrolled within the high school). With it being such a small school, the extra-curricular opportunities honestly aren't that limited considering we offer 3 sports in the fall, 1 sport in the winter, and 1 sport in the spring plus we have a FFA team along with an FCCLA team. Being enrolled in this school is a great experience, and I honestly am glad it is the only public school I have attended so far.... Read 5 reviews

Senior: High school for me has been a mix of emotions! It’s definitely been a crazy ride! I have worked at a pizza place named Pizza on the Run! I have also been involved in NHS and FCCLA. I have done volleyball and cheer for two years and dance for three. I have kept my grades high while also keeping up my social life! I love being with my friends and my family! My mom and I have a tradition to watch Big Brother, Survivor and American Idol together. As you can see we love reality TV shows. I love being out in nature and enjoying the world. School has given me an opportunity to put myself out their. I have met so many different types of people. I love meeting new people with very different backgrounds from me. Even though my high school experience has been good and I’m sad too move on to college, I can’t wait to graduate! Starting a new journey gets me very excited for what I can achieve....

Senior: Pinedale High School is a great school to attend. All teachers are ready to help students not only in their subject, but also in preparing them for life. Teachers offer great help with work and can bring any students knowledge to the next level. Some of the most important classes I have taken or that I will take/I am taking right now include Test Prep, Band, Finance, Economics, and Government. These apply to the real world and I will feel prepared to live on my own after my experiences with these classes and the amazing teachers behind them. All staff members are supportive of the students and create a helpful learning environment. Overall, Pinedale High School is a great school.... Read 27 reviews

Senior: I believe wholeheartedly that Lander valley High school is one of the best high schools in Wyoming. From the athletics to school organized clubs and community service opportunities, Lander is giving their students a well rounded high school experience. The teachers are amazing. They are kind, helpful, understanding, and more than willing to help each and every student. They always want the best for the students even when the students don’t strive for the best themselves. Lander Valley is rich with cultural and racial diversity. They except and appreciate every type of student from every background. Lander Valley finds ways to support those in need and make sure everyone is getting the best care and guidance available. Students can always feel safe and trust the adults without a doubt. Lander Valley is also very connected to the community outside of the school and works together in community service activities. Lander is a warm, welcoming, humble town and so is the school....

Although my school is very small, it has developed many successful people throughout the years. We have all sorts of sports, clubs, and cool academic works. Not only is my school educational, but it also has taught me social skills. My social skills have improved significantly since I've been in high school.

Senior: Kelly Walsh High School is a phenomenal place to earn a high school diploma. There is a huge focus placed on the four pillars of the school: Academics, Acceptance, Activities, Athletics. There are a ton of classes available to students. There’s multiple foreign languages, extremely well funded CTE and music departments, and multiple levels for need based classes. Acceptance is a huge deal too! Rodstock is a music festival put on once a year by the school, where anyone who wants to share their talent of performance can. Even if someone may not have the best performance, they receive immense praise from the student body. There are tons of clubs also. If a student doesn’t have a club that suits them, they are able to easily create one. All they need is a faculty member to help them get started. Possibilities are endless! Athletics have an awesome presence at KW. The student section always shows up, whether it’s for dance, basketball, football. Kelly Walsh is awesome!... Read 318 reviews

Sophomore: Big Horn High School is unlike any other school. The teachers show that they care about you. I feel safe here because of our amazing teachers and staff, but it is also because we are in the safest part of the state. Sports are definitely an extremely large role in the school, as well as the community. You are treated differently if you are not involved in sports, this makes it hard for those who are nonathletic or dislike athletic teams.... Read 82 reviews
