Northwest Educational Service District

The Northwest Educational Service District's area includes 35 public school districts and several private schools in Island, San Juan, Skagit, Snohomish, and Whatcom counties. The school districts in our region serve 170,000 students with varying languages, special needs, and learning styles. Our staff of administrators, educators, and support personnel work to provide quality professional development opportunities and student programs, while providing administrative support and technical assistance to local school districts.

NWESD saves schools money through cost-effective cooperatives, centralized services, and pooled resources. The NWESD also provides specialized services otherwise unavailable, and secures new resources for the region through grants and innovative funding.
