How the Wyoming WRS formula works
The Wyoming Retirement System uses a 2.125% multiplier on your highest average salary for your first 15 years of service and 2.25% for years beyond 15, based on the average of your highest three years. Note this is the state's general public-employee plan, which covers school employees.
This calculator uses a single percentage and a simplified formula, so treat the result as an estimate and confirm your figure with WRS. Wyoming teachers also pay into Social Security.

Questions
How is a Wyoming WRS pension calculated?
The WRS benefit multiplies a 2.125% multiplier by your highest average salary by your years of service. For example, 30 years at a $55,000 highest average salary is 2.125% × $55,000 × 30 = $35,062 per year before any early-retirement reduction.
What multiplier does Wyoming WRS use?
It is 2.125% per year for your first 15 years of service and 2.25% per year after that.
Do Wyoming teachers get Social Security?
Yes. Wyoming teachers pay into Social Security, so most receive a WRS benefit plus a Social Security benefit. Adding any 403(b) or 457(b) savings completes the picture.
