Our Mission

The mission of the Grundy County Special Education Cooperative is to prepare students with disabilities to be functional members of society by providing specialized programs, services and personnel in a learning environment that maximizes individual potential.

​Governance and Operations

The provision of programs and services for children with disabilities is governed by the federal Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA), the School Code of Illinois and regulations promulgated thereunder.
Policies and procedures, consistent with law, are approved and adopted by an Executive Board composed of superintendents of member districts and by a Governing Board composed of members of the boards of each of the member districts.
The Morris Community High School, District #101, serves as the administrative district and legal entity of the Grundy County Special Education Cooperative.
Programs and services are funded through a combination of tuition and administrative assessments paid by member districts and federal grants.
WE BELIEVE THAT:​
​
  • Education must prepare students to be functional members of society
  • A child’s school experience must build the foundation for lifelong learning
  • Parents/families, teachers, support staff and administrators must work cooperatively and collaboratively to promote learning
  • All children are unique and must be educated in a learning environment that maximizes their individual potential
  • A students self esteem is critical to optimal learning
  • Social, emotional and physical development are equally as important as academic development
  • All children have strengths
  • Education must be challenging, enjoyable, relevant, interactive and productive.
