The Board of Trustees of Albany County School District #1 will be hosting a special meeting on Friday, October 18, 2024, to present to the Wyoming Department of Education’s (WDE) Peer Review Team. The meeting will take place from 2:45 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. in the Boardroom at the School Administration Office, located at 1948 Grand Avenue, Laramie.

Accreditation is an important measure of school performance and impacts a district’s funding, resources, and reputation.

During the session, the Board of Trustees will present information about the district’s achievements, goals, and compliance with educational standards. Members of the public are welcome to attend and observe the proceedings.

This peer review process is part of regular evaluations conducted by the state to ensure that school districts like Albany County School District #1 are on track to meet required benchmarks and maintain high educational standards.
