BOCES funding to stay the same

The Board of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) decided not to pursue additional funding this year.

According to BOCES Coordinator Melissa Donough, at a special meeting on Feb. 2, the board discussed their current funding situation and found that for their activities, the amount is adequate. Because it is currently an election year and the economic situation in Wyoming is less than ideal, BOCES members decided that this may not be the best year to present this idea to voters.

Donough said the board is comfortable with the amount of funding for the next year or two. BOCES funding will stay the same, funding programs like adult education and kindergarten readiness, among others.
