HB 17 Wyoming House · 2025 Regular Session

Career technical education equipment grants amendments.

HB 17 amends Wyoming's career technical education equipment grant program for K-12 public school districts. It increases the maximum annual grant award from $50,000 to $75,000 and reduces the required timeframe for expending prior-year funds from five years to two years. The bill also adjusts eligibility rules to prioritize districts that haven't received a grant in the past five years. These changes aim to streamline access to funding for schools purchasing career/technical education equipment, effective July 1, 2025.
