If power IS restored and stable, we will have a normal early-out school day. If power IS NOT restored and stable, school and activities will be cancelled. Thank you for your partnership and patience.

Converse County School District is currently affected by the widespread electrical outage affecting Rocky Mountain Power customers. The current state of our schools is as follows:

Intermediate School: limited power, phones are not working
Primary School: normal operations
Central: normal operations

If you need to get a message to any school without working phones, please call 307-358-2942 instead. This will connect you to our main office at Central Administration, and we will relay the information.
Due to power surges, we may need to shut down power to the schools to protect equipment. At this time, school will dismiss as usual. We will provide updates as the situation changes.

Join us as we honor and celebrate our veterans for their service and sacrifice.
Let’s come together as a community to show our gratitude. We hope to see you there!

As we continue our strategic planning journey, we’d like to share a quick update. We recently held our initial planning meeting, bringing together a diverse group of 24 internal and external stakeholders, called the Strategic Planning Team. During this session, the team developed a strategic plan placemat outlining the proposed mission, vision, values, goals, and objectives for the district.
