About
KEDC provides support and adds value to our member districts through a united spirit of cooperation and innovation. Established in 1965 and with more than 60 school district members; KEDC is Kentucky's oldest and largest of the 8 educational cooperatives in Kentucky. KEDC exists to provide educational support services for its members. Types of services provided: technology wiring, full collective bidding services, special education support, professional development opportunities for all school employees, adult education services, leadership development, and more. History of KEDC In 1965 representatives of 17 public school districts and Morehead State University (MSU) met to discuss the possibility of applying for grant funds under new landmark federal legislation to create something called a "supplementary education program." Mason County Supt. Hubert Hume chaired the meeting which resulted in a temporary agreement to work together and to form a steering committee to finish the grant application. Paintsville Supt. Oran Teater was elected committee chairman and MSU, at the suggestion of Dr. Morris Norfleet, agreed to be the temporary headquarters of the fledgling organization. Less than a month later, this pioneering venture had progressed to the point that an organizational meeting was held for what had become the Eastern Kentucky Educational Development Corporation (EKEDC). Initially, the corporation encompassed 18 counties, grouped into eight sections, each with a member on the corporation's Board of Directors, along with an MSU representative. The original districts included: Paintsville Independent, Ashland Independent, Carter County, Lawrence County, Bath Count, Floyd County, Morgan County, Mason County, and Reedus Back, director of MSU's Breckinridge School. Mr. Teater was holding meetings with federal officials in Washington in support of the grant application under Title III of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965.
