Wyoming Education Association

What a weekend it was! Teams from the targeted locals across Wyoming gathered for an intensive session of organizing, strategizing, messaging, and more. These members are invigorated and ready to build and strengthen their local EAs - and we are here for it!

Here's a great opportunity to become part of the WEA team!

With the current discussion on what's happening with school funding, WEA President Amen shares her thoughts on the matter.

We're so grateful for everything that Wyoming's public school educators do - not just today or this week, but every single day. THANK YOU for making a difference for our students, our schools, and our communities!

If you feel the same, will you turn that appreciation into action? Take a moment to sign the Pledge to Support Wyoming's Public Schools - you really can make a difference! Visit the pledge at bit.ly/4elewPH.

Workers over billionaires! We stand strong and in solidarity with all of our worker siblings - not just today, but all year long.

Billionaires are defunding our schools, privatizing public services, attacking unions, and buying off our politicians. They're trying to crush working-class families and create a race to the bottom—on wages, on benefits, on dignity itself. But we will continue to rise up because our lives, our families, our public schools, and our communities are worth fighting for!
