District-Level NCES Analysis
Lincoln County School District #1 operates 3 public schools serving 598 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Wyoming. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 combined, 1 elementary 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 Lincoln County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $19,028 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 48 Wyoming districts by per-pupil spending. See how Wyoming compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 81.4% local, 14.9% state, and 3.6% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers. The district's equity score is 24/100, ranked #41 of 44 in Wyoming against a state average of 51, notably less 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 (3 AP courses district-wide), a 230.3:1 student-counselor ratio, that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 3.4% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 86.1% White, 10.6% Hispanic or Latino, 0.1% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is New Frontier High School, with a diversity index of 27.8/100.
Its largest campus is Canyon Elementary School, enrolling 331 students (52% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is New Frontier High School, at 18 students, a 18x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Canyon Elementary School accounts for 52.0% of all Lincoln County School District #1 student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Lincoln County School District #1 a distant remainder — means Lincoln County School District #1-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: elementary. 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.
Lincoln County School District #1 school enrollment varies 18× across entities
Lincoln County School District #1 school enrollment ranges from 18 students (lowest) to 331 students (highest), a spread of 313 students. That spread reflects typical mixed-portfolio variation between specialty programs and large neighbourhood schools. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Lincoln County School District #1 student-counselor ratio is 230:1 — low (typically associated with meeting or exceeding the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) recommended 250:1 benchmark, which correlates with stronger college and career counseling capacity)
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 Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
Lincoln County School District #1 chronic absenteeism rate is 3.4% — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
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 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.
