Program accomplishments

  • The ISC is the sponsor for a multiple employer plan for member schools. Annual member fees are paid by schools and participants pay quarterly fees based on investment balances
    Expenses $37,360
  • The ISC provides consolidated purchasing for select classroom resources at discounted prices. Some vendors require a consoliated order. In those cases we collect the fees from schools for that order and submit the total collected to the vendor. For other vendors we refer schools to the vendor for a discount as a member of the ISC and the school pays the vendor directly. Consolidated purchasing is a cost saving service for schools and not a profit center.
    Expenses $26,060
