Wyoming Education Department Opens Applications for Federal School Choice Initiative

The Wyoming Department of Education is now accepting applications from non-profit organizations to serve as Scholarship Granting Organizations for a new federal school choice program. This initiative allows U.S. taxpayers to receive federal tax credits for contributions, which fund K-12 scholarships for tuition and tutoring. The program aims to expand educational access for students from households earning up to 300% of the area's median gross income, with applications due by December 1st for 2027 participation.
