REG 17 EDUCATION SERVICE CENTER

Located at 1111 W Loop 289 in Lubbock, Texas, the Region 17 Education Service Center operates as an active, non-charter public educational service agency serving the broader Lubbock metropolitan area. Set within a large city environment, this regional organization provides essential infrastructure, professional development, and administrative assistance across its regional network. Rather than serving as a traditional local school district, the center functions as a centralized support hub tailored to assist educators, school leaders, and community partners throughout the region.

Given its unique mission as a service agency, the organization maintains an open operational status while overseeing zero direct instructional schools and offering no pre-kindergarten through 12th-grade classroom instruction. Consequently, standard federal reporting metrics reflect no direct campus-level full-time equivalent staffing or traditional grade-level student enrollments, highlighting its specialized role in technical assistance, district support, and professional training rather than direct student instruction. Researchers, educators, and community members seeking to learn more about the center’s regional programs can reach their administrative headquarters in Lubbock or visit their official website at www.esc17.net.
