WASC is proudly sponsored by the Wyoming High School Activities Association (WHSAA) and is recognized by National Student Council (NatStuCo).
Our organization is governed by an Executive Board made up of five adult advisers and eight student leaders, representing schools from across Wyoming. As the premier student leadership organization in the state, WASC serves hundreds of students and advisers each year through meaningful leadership training and character-building experiences.
Leadership Opportunities Include:
Our website is designed to be a valuable resource for both students and advisers across Wyoming. Here you’ll find up-to-date information on upcoming conferences and workshops, along with registration and membership forms available 24 hours a day.
