Facing the Storm: Superintendent Megan Degenfelder on Education Challenges and Opportunities

In this special episode, Wyoming Superintendent of Public Instruction Megan Degenfelder joins us to talk about the biggest issues facing education in our state. From major court battles over school funding and education choice to the state’s push for stronger career and technical training, Superintendent Degenfelder shares her perspective on where Wyoming is excelling and where more work is needed. She discusses the launch of TeacherCon 25, efforts to bring patriotism and civics education back into classrooms, and the push to expand parental involvement in K–12 education. We also cover the legal fight over Wyoming’s new Education Savings Account program, the federal role in education policy, and how the state can better prepare students for both college and workforce pathways.
