Education

Child and Youth Education Services/School Liaison

Laramie County School District 1, is the district your student will be attending if you plan on living in Cheyenne Wyoming.  The mission of LCSD#1 in cooperation with students, parent, staff and the community, is to guarantee a high-quality education in a safe and orderly environment for all students, inspiring them to become lifelong learners and responsible, productive citizens.  LCSD#1 consists of 4 High Schools, 6 Junior High Schools, 29 Elementary Schools and one Charter School K-5 and one Charter School 6-8 grades.  Information on schools and the district can be located on www.laramie1.org. For new families online registration at register.laramie1.org is where you will need to start.  After completion of the online registration all documents should be brought to Central High School or McCormick Junior High School.  If you move during the school year and your school is in session you will bring documents to that school.

 

WHILE IN TLF:

As long as you are assigned to TLF (located on the installation), then your children will be able to attend the schools that are located in the central triad.  LCSD#1 is divided into 3 triads. If you reside off the installation or are in contract quarters you will have to register your student based on your address and they will be assigned to that school in which you reside.  Please check with your School Liaison nancy.warner@us.af.mil for additional information concerning the rules that apply to students and placement if you choose to move off base out of TLF but want to continue with attending at the school in which you registered while in TLF.   

 

FINDING YOUR SCHOOL:

You will find that our military families that are stationed at F.E. Warren reside all throughout Cheyenne.   If you plan to live on the installation your student is part of the central triad and would be assigned to one of the schools in that triad. As of Oct. 1, 2019, 14,300 students were enrolled in the district with all 3 triads relatively balanced at the elementary level; East, South and Central triad.

Homeschool

More than three percent of the American student population is educated in the home.  In Wyoming, it is estimated that in 2019, 2,885 students were homeschooled.  Each year the WDE has seen an increase in families who choose to educate their children at home.  A home-based educational program in Wyoming must meet the requirements of a basic educational program pursuant to the Wyoming state Statute 21-4-101 (a) (vi)...  Please make sure that you are utilizing an Accredited Version of Curriculum to ensure easy portability if the decision is made to transfer back into a public school.  If you plan on homeschooling your student it is a requirement that you contact LCSD#1 to receive proper documentation that will need to be approved by the Assistant Superintendent of Schools Dr. Tracey Kinney. You will be required to complete a verification of homeschool form that is also attached.
