Common school account-investments and distributions.
This proposed constitutional amendment would modernize Wyoming's common school fund management. It requires all earnings from the fund - including investment gains (not just interest) - to be transferred to a separate earnings fund, rather than being used directly for school operations. The amendment also mandates that the legislature create a process to cover any investment losses to the fund, ensuring the principal value remains intact. These changes would clarify that all fund earnings must exclusively support Wyoming's public schools, as intended by the current constitution.
