Bi County Or Tri County Coops Costs And Programs
District 134 in Whiteside faces a choice between joining the Bi-County Special Education Cooperative or the Lee County Special Education Association. The Bi-County unit serves 23 districts with over 16 000 students, a projected 1971 72 staff of 61 instructors and a budget around 754 160. The Lee Association serves about 8 600 students, with eight instructors and a 97 580 budget but decentralizes instruction to local districts. Costs differ by year and reimbursement rules, with similar net year costs after first year but local control and mobility concerns favoring Lee for Sterling.
