Wyoming Taxpayers Association On Wyoming School Enrollment
The Wyoming Taxpayers Association notes Wyoming’s 1953-54 public school enrollment at 68 271 will rise by about 18 000 to 1960-61 reaching 86 250. Growth stems from births up 80 percent 1939 to 1953 with over 7 000 births in six years. Some districts face crowding while others can absorb more students without more facilities. The group urges cautious spending stressing classrooms over new auditoriums cafeterias and pools as districts may need higher bonded debt under a 1954 constitutional amendment.
