Wyoming school districts get maintenance funding
The law provides $237.865123 million from the public school foundation account for major maintenance payments to Wyoming school districts. The State Construction Department distributes these payments under the state's school maintenance law. Of this amount, $1.1224 million is available from the section's effective date through June 30, 2028. The remaining $236.742723 million is available July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2028. This money cannot be transferred or spent for another purpose. Money neither spent nor committed returns as required by law on June 30, 2028.
Wyoming schools get building project funding
The law funds listed Wyoming school projects through the public school foundation account. It provides $31.661322 million for major repairs, $15.739855 million for design, and $77.359731 million for construction. It also provides $2.62067 million for demolition and $7.642895 million for unexpected costs tied to these listed projects. Each listed repair, design, construction, and demolition project has a spending cap. The School Facilities Commission can reorder repair projects for efficiency or readiness. Construction funding and most design and demolition funding start July 1, 2026. The marked Teton #1 design and Laramie #1 demolition appropriations take effect immediately. Project funds remain available until completion; money neither spent nor committed then returns to the foundation account.
Wyoming schools get safety project grants
Beginning July 1, 2026, the law provides $10 million for school safety projects, including security entrance areas and vehicle barriers. Districts must apply to the State Construction Department in the form required by the School Facilities Commission. The commission approves and ranks projects using national and regional best practices and district needs. Before spending, each project must appear in the district facility plan, be cost-effective, and have a commission-set budget cap. Money neither spent nor committed returns to the public school foundation account when each project is complete. Both agencies must report spending and additional funding needs each September 1, starting in 2026, until funds are spent or returned.
Campbell County school transportation facility gets funding
The law adds $2.65 million for Campbell County School District #1's transportation facility ancillary building. The money supplements earlier funding for construction and demolition. The added money cannot change the project's original scope or design. The School Facilities Commission must prioritize this and earlier funding to keep the project adequate, efficient, and cost-effective.
Charter and district schools get lease funding
The law provides $6.332928 million for listed charter school leases in the 2026–2027 and 2027–2028 school years. Each listed lease has a spending cap, and charter lease spending must follow state law. Another $1.792976 million covers leases for charter schools approved to operate under state law. That separate funding does not expire at the budget period's end and remains available until further legislative action. The State Construction Department must report that spending each September 1, starting September 1, 2026, until it is spent. Laramie County School District #1 also gets $52,125 for three modular building leases, capped at $17,375 each. Modular lease funding runs July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2028; none of these funds are household payments.
