District-Level NCES Analysis
Fremont County School District #14 operates 3 public schools serving 596 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Wyoming. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 combined, 1 high, 1 middle schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Fremont County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $35,743 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the top 5 of 48 Wyoming districts by per-pupil spending. See how Wyoming compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 6.1% local, 58.2% state, and 35.7% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 95/100, ranked #2 of 44 in Wyoming against a state average of 51, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 3 schools offering Advanced Placement (2 AP courses district-wide), a 161:1 student-counselor ratio, that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 83.7% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 1.6% Hispanic or Latino, 0.1% White across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Wyoming Indian Elementary, with a diversity index of 7.0/100.
Its largest campus is Wyoming Indian Elementary, enrolling 250 students (44% of the district's total enrollment).
Wyoming Indian Elementary accounts for 41.9% of all Fremont County School District #14 student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Fremont County School District #14-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Fremont County School District #14 has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 81.3% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch
free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Areas above 75% eligibility — including this one — receive concentration grants on top of the basic Title I formula. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
Fremont County School District #14 student-counselor ratio is 161:1 — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Values this far below typical often correlate with unusually small scale or population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se — worth checking whether the underlying denominator is itself an outlier.
Fremont County School District #14 chronic absenteeism rate is 83.7% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
