an okay school.. some of the teachers don't really teach though and expect a lot in turn which can be frustrating.. also there is a lot of 'favoriting' by teachers who will let one person do whatever and then discipline someone else just because they don't like that particular person.. and there are just a few that really need to retire.. there is also a lot of discrimination and bullying. could be more activities...

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Wyoming administered the Proficiency Assessments for Wyoming Students (PAWS) in reading, writing and math to students in grades 3 through 8 and 11, and in science in grades 4, 8 and 11. PAWS tests are standards-based, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Wyoming. The goal is for all students score at or above the proficient level.
