Johnson County School District No. 1 is taking a gamble this year by giving every employee a raise using a temporary funding increase approved by the Wyoming Legislature to raise staff salaries. The raises will cost the district over $1 million. Certified staff, such as educators, will receive a $1,500 increase to their base salaries. Classified staff, mostly hourly employees such as food service workers and bus drivers, will receive a $0.75 hourly raise to their base pay.

The district isn’t unique, as nationwide enrollment is expected to peak with the Class of 2025 and then decline through 2041. In Wyoming, public school funding is based on enrollment, so for each student a district loses, it means a decrease in funding.
