WSBA represents the interests of its members before the State Legislature, State Board of Education, and other state and national agencies. During the legislative session WSBA provides daily updates on legislative action via email to all administrators and school board members on what legislative action occurred on that day and what is expected to happen in future days. The Association employs lobbyists to be at the Capitol every day the legislature is in session to work with the legislators to let them know WSBA’s position on educational issues.

Ignite Wyoming
Ignite Wyoming
Ignite Wyoming is a public advocacy campaign designed to celebrate and bring awareness to the amazing things going on in Wyoming public schools. It is centered on three defining principles:
Students are a state’s greatest natural resource, who represent the promise of the future.
As such, the state must invest in its public schools to ensure students are able to reach their potential.
In turn, our state’s future will reap the benefits of this investment.
Through positive messaging, the Ignite Wyoming campaign aims to create a broader understanding of the crucial role schools have in contributing to the future of our state!
