Mission Statement
The Education of All Handicapped Children Act (Public Law 94-142) requires that states provide a free, appropriate public education, including related services, for all children with disabilities from ages 3 to 21.
The Marion County Special Education Cooperative #617 (MCSEC) was formed to provide a free, appropriate education for exceptional children in the five school districts of Marion County. MCSEC is organized under Kansas law as a legal entity cooperative.
