Ute Pass BOCES

Situated at 405 El Monte Place in Manitou Springs, Colorado, Ute Pass BOCES functions as an active public educational service agency providing essential regional support within the greater Colorado Springs suburban area. Classified as an open, non-charter administrative organization rather than a traditional school district with standalone campuses, this operational agency works collaboratively to deliver specialized programming and resource-sharing to neighboring school systems. Because it operates as a regional cooperative agency rather than a direct-enrollment district, it does not manage traditional individual school buildings or report conventional grade-level pathways, focusing instead on overarching educational solutions tailored to broader community needs.

The agency’s staffing composition clearly reflects its specialized mission within the 2024–2025 educational landscape. Out of a total workforce of 34 full-time equivalent personnel, the overwhelming majority—more than 27 staff members—are dedicated to specialized support services, working alongside nearly five full-time teachers and nearly two instructional aides. This high proportion of support staff allows Ute Pass BOCES to deliver high-impact interventions, administrative coordination, and targeted educational services, making it a key regional asset for parents, educators, and researchers looking at collaborative public education models.
