Renewal & Continuation of ESA

Once enrolled in the Wyoming ESA program, parents must renew their participation each year to continue receiving benefits.

The WDE will notify parents of the renewal period before the start of each new school year. You will receive a renewal contract, which must be signed and submitted by the deadline to maintain your child's ESA eligibility.

The renewal process includes verifying that your child continues to meet the eligibility requirements for the program, including confirming residency, income threshold (Pre-K only), and educational status.

If you do not submit the annual renewal contract by the deadline, the student may lose access to ESA funds.

Any unused funds in an ESA student's account shall remain in the account the following school year until the ESA student is no longer eligible or the account is closed.
