The Wyoming P-16 Education Council

The Wyoming P-16 Education Council is a non-partisan, non-governmental, non-profit partnership of state leaders from business, education, and government. The P-16 Education Council seeks to create greater coherence in Wyoming's education system from pre-Kindergarten through the baccalaureate degree (P-16) to increase student success as they transition from each level of education to the next.
