Wyoming Classroom Connections Tour

Exploring Wyoming Classrooms

The Wyoming Classroom Connections Tour (WCCT) is designed to provide University of Wyoming College of Education students with an inside look at Wyoming's public schools. The tour allows students to observe classrooms, connect with public education leaders and educators, and learn about the incredible opportunities available for new educators in rural spaces. These tours take place once a semester with a limited number of Partnership member districts.

Overview and history

The Wyoming Classroom Connections Tour (WCCT) grew from a Wyoming School-University Partnership governing board meeting in 2024. Justin Pierantoni and Colby Gull tossed the idea of taking University of Wyoming College of Education students on a tour of Wyoming. From that idea, the WCCT was born. The Partnership held its inaugural Wyoming Classroom Connections Tour on April 10, 2025.
