Learn How to Assist Your Military-Connected Students. You may not think about
it often, but every school district in Wyoming has military-connected students,
most with needs unique to their situations. Military Child Education Coalition
(MCEC) offers a wide range of professional development training seminars
and online courses for the educators and caretakers of those students. Topics
include school transitions, children with special needs, and college readiness—
all are available for any caring adult concerned about the welfare of our military-
connected children and youth. For a full description of MCEC offerings, go
