When C.O.O.R. ISD staff receive notification of a positive case, they will notify the Health Department for the residence of the infected person, as well as the Roscommon County Health Department, and assist them with contact tracing.
The Health Department will identify close contacts and may order them to quarantine. A close contact means any individual who was within six feet of a COVID-19 infected person for at least 15 minutes over 24 hours starting from two days before illness onset, or two days prior to testing positive for those that are asymptomatic. Please see the CDC website to learn what you can do to prevent the transmission of COVID-19.
As long as there are cases of COVID-19 in the community, there will be no way to prevent all risks of COVID-19 spread in schools. The goal is to keep the risk as low as possible and keep schools/school activities as safe as possible.

The Great Start Collaborative and Parent Coalition of COOR ISD and Iosco RESA are proud to announce that they have been awarded the 2021 Trusted Advisors Grant in the amount of $25,000. This is the fifth consecutive year of receiving the grant. The grant is used to support and expand the Talking is Teaching Campaign throughout the 5 counties the Great Start Collaborative serves. In collaboration with community partners such as local hospitals, health departments, and Early On teams, the grant will help fund our Talking is Teaching Newborn Literacy bags, Immunization bags, and Social-Emotional bags, which are distributed to families throughout our five-county area. The Great Start Collaborative and Parent Coalition bags support literacy and everyday learning for families to utilize in their home environments and also connect families with local resources.

Constituent Districts
C.O.O.R. ISD includes the counties of Crawford, Oscoda, Ogemaw, and Roscommon, an area covering 2,400 square miles. Within this area, C.O.O.R. serves six local public school districts and two Public School Academies (see "District Map" to the right):

The ISD collects and monitors data that is required by the Michigan Department of Education and works with local districts to ensure that the type and nature of services needed within our area are properly represented at the state level.
The services that the ISD provides allow local school districts regardless of size to have access to quality personnel, services and programs that they could not afford individually. This prevents unnecessary duplication and better use of state and local money through the sharing of resources.
