Mission Statement:

The Covered Bridge Special Education District believes that each student has the right to an appropriate education. Collaborative efforts among students, parents, staff and communities prepare individuals to be contributing members of the community.

Covered Bridge is a special education cooperative that provides services to four school districts: Rockville, Southwest Parke, South Vermillion, and Vigo County. The provision of services to students with disabilities is a shared effort by the local school corporations and the Covered Bridge Special Education District.

The district includes forty public schools and several private/parochial schools within a geographic  area  of  800  square  miles in  west central  Indiana. Certified and non-certified personnel employed by Covered Bridge total 120.  There are approximately 200 special education teachers in the four member corporations.  Within the Covered Bridge Special Education District,  the number of students eligible for special education services on December 1, 2003 was 3,765 students.
