Grundy County Spec Educ Coop

Located at 725 School Street in Morris, Illinois, the Grundy County Special Education Cooperative serves as a vital public resource dedicated to providing specialized instruction and vocational services. Operating as an active, non-charter district in a fringe town setting within the broader Chicago-Naperville-Elgin metropolitan area, the cooperative manages two operational school facilities tailored to individualized learning needs rather than standard grade-level offerings. Families and educational researchers seeking to connect with the district administration can reach their central office directly at (815) 942-5780.

To support its specialized educational mandate, the cooperative maintains a highly focused multidisciplinary workforce comprising nearly 176 full-time equivalent (FTE) staff members. This team features approximately 49 FTE teachers working alongside 37 FTE instructional aides to deliver direct classroom support and targeted intervention. Furthermore, the district relies on a substantial foundation of over 90 FTE support staff professionals who provide essential therapeutic, administrative, and operational services. Situated within Illinois's 75th State House and 38th State Senate districts, the cooperative stands as a crucial framework for collaborative special education delivery during the 2024–2025 school year.
