About the National Network for Educational Renewal (NNER)

The Wyoming School-University Partnership is a member of the National Network for Educational Renewal (NNER), the national organization working to simultaneously improve the quality of education for citizens of our democracy and the quality of preparation of educators for our schools. 

In addition to the national-level of the organization, the NNER is comprised of many state- or local-level partnerships including the Wyoming School-University Partnership.  This network of partnerships creates an environment of progressive thinking and momentum for change.

The NNER leads by example in its commitment to improve simultaneously the quality of education for citizens of our democracy and the quality of preparation of educators for our schools through partnerships with the Institution of Higher Education and the Local Education Agency.
