Connecticut has a number of avenues for towns and school districts to regionally collaborate to share services, achieve efficiencies, and expand opportunities for student and families.

Whether it is regional school districts, endowed academies, or designated high schools, municipalities currently have a variety of regional options and approaches when it comes to offering K-12 education to their resident students.

However, a number of opportunities exist to increase and improve these options and strengthen voluntary regional collaboration in K-12 education. This document outlines some of the opportunities available and how solutions could be implemented to address existing challenges.
