Connie Hayes was our presenter today. Connie is the Superintendent of School District 916, which is an "Intermediate District". Intermediate school districts are specialty school districts that provide defined student services to a group of regular “member” school districts. Minnesota has four Intermediate Districts (916, 917, 287 and 288) that serve more than 20,000 students annually. District 916 serves 14 school districts in the Northeast Metro area. Programming includes career and technical education, special education services, and alternative high schools. In addition to their unique programming, intermediate districts provide purchasing power for member districts. Member school districts pay a membership fee, then are able to utilize services on a fee-for-service basis. Private schools and charter schools can sometimes take advantage of services but are not allowed to become members and, increasingly, they are not able to access services because the demand from member schools is very high and continuing to rise.
