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.

Sheridan High School does an excellent job preparing their students for their next chapter in life, whether it is the workforce or college. The faculty cares about the education the students are receiving as well as their overall well-being. With academics, I would like there to be more hands on learning. Sports are a huge part of the culture at Sheridan High School. We pride ourselves with state champions in almost all sports.

It is a great smaller high school to go to for a solid education and great teachers that are willing to work one on one with students in order to achieve their academic and personal goals. Incredibly talented staff all around that make the school a great environment and experience for all.

This school keeps on improving! Excellent band program with the most people admitted for All State Band than any other Wyoming school.
