Member Districts

ESSDACK got its start when four local school districts joined together with a common focus on the future of K-12 learners. And while our mission has changed to include non-profit and business partners, that focus on the future of public and private students remains a vital piece of who we are.

We offer a variety of services and support to our ESSDACK member districts, associate members, special education cooperatives, and non-member schools and districts.

Member districts receive substantial discounts on ESSDACK products and services, including access to our large health insurance pool and retirement plan. Member districts help shape ESSDACK’s organizational direction through our Superintendent’s Council and by sitting local board of education representatives on our Board of Directors.
