The Services We Provide Our Schools



The Darke County Educational Service Center (ESC) is dedicated to the task of providing services to the students of Darke County.  This is done by working with the local districts in providing cooperative services which the local district might not be able to provide.  The relationship between the ESC and the schools of Darke County is one of service and leadership.

Even though there are some duties authorized by statute for a Governing Board and some duties imposed by statute on a Governing Board, the Darke County Governing Board of the Educational Service Center consider their main responsibility as being that of service in providing the help to obtain the highest goals and objectives for the educational programs for the students of Darke County.  Below is a summary of the services provided to districts in Darke County.
