Strategic Planning 2025 to 2030

We would like to thank the families, community members, and staff members who participated in our information gathering and feedback opportunities.  Strategic Goals were established and work is underway to move forward in each area. 


Constituent Districts

C.O.O.R. ISD  includes the counties of Crawford, Oscoda, Ogemaw, and Roscommon, an area covering 2,600 square miles. Within this area, C.O.O.R. serves six local public school districts and two Public School Academies. 

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.
