Gordon hears about education

Governor Mark Gordon’s education initiative has completed its statewide input sessions and is currently preparing a series of policy recommendations.
The Governor’s Reimagining and Innovating the Delivery of Education or RIDE Advisory Group hosted 17 listening sessions around the state with parents, students, employers, district employees and community members.
Much support was shown for more individualized approaches to learning, including more flexibility for students to move at their own pace.
Gordon said that he asked citizens how they would improve Wyoming’s education system and heard that they support their local teachers and want to maintain control.
He said the state can do more to address teacher retention, student engagement and mental health.
