Educational Service District 105

Educational Service District 105 implements and manages several cooperatives of mutual benefit to our districts. By hosting cooperatives, we can help save schools money while providing access to services they may not be able to offer on their own. Our ability to pool resources and leverage public and private support helps secure new resources for our region.

Our cost effective and cooperative approach brings this region nearly $36 in services for every $1 in state funding we receive. Our resource leveraging capabilities make us a unique partner in education.

We develop our programs based on school district need. By building networks and cooperative arrangements among districts and other agencies, we now offer centralized service for 10 cooperatives.

In 1995, the Legislative Budget Committee conducted a review commending the value of ESDs. The report concluded, "a major benefit of ESDs is that they provide access to services that would otherwise not be available to school districts."
