Why Participate in BOCES Services • Two or more Districts share a service that a single district can’t provide on their own • Centralized provision of service may be more cost effective • Multiple participating districts result in a cadre of staff • Shared Business Office provides the ability for enhanced segregation of duties Lighting the Way to the Future

Participation in BOCES Services • Each Component District Board selects services to purchase for the upcoming year • A portion of the cost is returned to the District by the State of New York as BOCES Aid • Most services generate aid • A few services do not generate aid • Each service is operated separately as a CoSer (Cooperative Service) • Money not spent in a CoSer is returned to the participating Districts Lighting the Way to the Future
