What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Wyoming licenses private trade, correspondence, distance-education, technical, vocational, business, and other private schools through the Department of Education under W.S. 21-2-401 through 21-2-407. A performance bond is part of the license.
Under W.S. 21-2-405, the bond is not more than $10,000 and protects students. If a school ceases to operate or cannot deliver the instruction students paid for, students can recover their losses against the bond, up to the penal sum.
Accredited private degree-granting postsecondary institutions and certain other schools are exempt. The bond is approved as to form by the Attorney General and typically renews annually; it is not insurance for the school — if the surety pays a student claim, the school repays the surety.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $10,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with the Department of Education. Your executed bond (approved as to form by the Attorney General) arrives by email, ready to file with your private school license application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $125 at the $10,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
