About Laramie County School District No. 1

Laramie County School District No. 1 is the largest public school district in Wyoming, serving students in and around Cheyenne, the state capital, in the southeastern corner of the state along the Colorado border. As with many districts nationwide, its school and classroom libraries have become a focal point in broader debates over which books belong on shelves accessible to students.

Books in Schools

This tracker currently lists 39 distinct titles that have been banned or challenged within Laramie County School District No. 1. That figure places the district among the more active sites of book challenge activity in Wyoming, a state where such disputes have generally been less widespread than in some other parts of the country. As is common elsewhere, challenges here have tended to center on titles addressing race, gender identity, sexuality, and other subjects that critics argue are inappropriate for school settings, while defenders counter that removing them limits students' access to a range of perspectives and experiences.

No verified news coverage of specific challenges in this district is available at this time. This page will be updated as additional reporting and documentation become available.
