High Plains Educational Cooperative

The High Plains Educational Cooperative is an open public educational service agency headquartered at 621 E. Oklahoma in Ulysses, Kansas (ZIP 67880). Situated within a remote town setting, the cooperative serves its region across Kansas's 2001st Congressional District, 20039th State Senate District, and 20124th State House District. Functioning as a specialized service agency rather than a traditional school district, the organization currently operates zero individual school buildings and offers no direct grade-level programs spanning from prekindergarten through 12th grade or adult education.

Reflecting its organizational model as a service agency, the cooperative reports zero direct student enrollment across all grade levels and demographic categories. Instead, its infrastructure is centered around a dedicated professional team comprising 62.78 total full-time equivalent (FTE) staff members. This workforce includes 34.28 FTE teachers and 28.5 FTE support staff personnel, with zero FTE instructional aides reported.
