Original Research by School Decision on Bi-county Sp Ed Hi Hs
Bi-County Special Education Cooperative's high school program, located in Sterling, is no longer operational. The school closed and is not currently accepting students.
This was a specialized high school serving students in the Bi-County Special Education Cooperative, a cooperative agreement spanning multiple districts in the region. The school operated at a dedicated campus address in Sterling and served students with individualized education plans in a separate special education setting.
Because the school is closed, current enrollment data, state assessment results, graduation rates, and information about active programs are not available. A parent seeking special education services for high school students should contact the Bi-County Special Education Cooperative directly or reach out to their home district to learn what current placements and services are available for high school students with IEPs.
The cooperative itself continues to operate; the question is where its high school students are now placed. This shift may reflect changes in service delivery models, enrollment, or regional education policy. A parent whose child previously attended this school, or who is exploring special education options in the Sterling or Bi-County area, should contact the cooperative's main office for guidance on current pathways.
Housing in the Sterling zip code is modestly valued and stable, with a housing market somewhat below the state benchmark. The broader Sterling area is in the midst of significant riverfront redevelopment, with new parks, adaptive reuse of historic manufacturing buildings, and mixed-use development underway. This growth may reshape residential and employment patterns in the region over the coming years, though its effect on school enrollment and services remains to be seen.
