Abstract | Through case studies of five states with varying facilities policies, the study presented in "What about the Schools? Factors Contributing to Expanded State Investment in School Facilities" examines the factors contributing to expanded state investment in equitable public school facilities and how those factors can be leveraged to encourage states that make minimal investments to expand their support for facilities funding. The five case study states are Massachusetts, New Jersey, Ohio, Texas, and Wyoming. This report provides details from the case study of Wyoming. The State of Wyoming has invested equitably in educational facilities for its students. According to the State of Our Schools analysis of NCES statistics, Wyoming spent $3.8 billion in capital outlay from FY 1994-2013, or about $28,323 per student. The state's share of total capital outlay was 63 percent. Recently the responsibility for educational facilities has shifted from local school districts to the state. "The State is responsible for all planning, design and construction or renovation of schools and district-owned facilities, including major maintenance and minor capital construction or component level projects (e.g., roof replacements or boiler replacements)" (WLSO 2015).
