The Carver-Scott Educational Cooperative is very involved in the development of a strong and growing local collaborative of school districts, county departments, city services and business and industry. The collaborative provides a cost effective way to integrate the perspectives of each involved discipline, and to bring together the considerable local expertise in the delivery of educational and support services for the benefit of our students and their families. Collaborative members are able to focus on doing what they do best, and to challenge each other to continue to do better.
All of CSEC’s programming is collaborative in nature. On the following pages
you will find highlights of some of our special initiatives.
CSEC provides educational programming for adolescents in outpatient chemical dependency treatment. This collaborative effort is between Haven Chemical Health Systems and CSEC with sites in Waconia and Shakopee.
