Through these Cosers, instructional services are provided to component
districts on a shared basis. This support service maintains and enhances
educational programs where full-time personnel are not required. The maximum
share of any given service in a single district is three days per week
or 60%. Each position must be shared among two or more districts and can
be provided for the ten-month school year. Any academic support service
that is required can be designed as an itinerant service if it meets the
criteria described above.
