GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I've been going to Kelly Walsh since I was in 9th grade. Overall it's been a great experience with minimal conflict/bullying. I have greatly enjoyed my time at this school, however sometimes it feels like admin could be better about how they allocate classes, and time dedicated to certain projects that students and teachers are apart of.

Overall, I had a great experience at Kelly Walsh. The best part about KW is that most of the teachers look out for your well-being and education. The worst part of my experience was not because of the school but because of the passing of a family member during my time at KW.

Overall I would give kelly Walsh high a b. While teachers and most other students are great, the administration fails to keep promises there is also a significant fighting problem. Technology, and sports are some of the best in Wyoming and the music programs are top teir

We have been pleased with how our son has flourish at Kelly Walsh. The teachers go above and beyond to ensure he is succeeding in every class. The school makes sure the students feel welcome and open to reach out for help.

Horrible administration. Not sure where the adult supervision is at the school but bullying is out of hand here. Nothing is done even though the parents are even involved in the cyber bullying. What kind of school allows multiple Instagram pages open for Casper fights with minors fighting each other...
