About FEH BOCES

Franklin-Essex-Hamilton BOCES is a shared educational services organization serving 10 school districts in New York’s North Country region with instruction, instructional support and operational services.

Our schools and classrooms provide:

  • Technical education programs that give career-minded students hands-on learning experiences.

  • Alternative education programs that find paths to success for students who don't thrive in a typical classroom setting. 

     

Component Districts

  • Brushton-Moira CSD

What is a BOCES?

There are 37 Supervisory Districts in New York state, each of which has a Board of Cooperative Educational Services.

Component school districts participate in a wide range of shared services that individual school districts may not be able to operate as effectively or economically themselves. These services include Career and Technical Education and other educational programs, instructional support for teachers, and operations support.

School districts receive BOCES aid in addition to local state aid as an incentive to share the cost of approved programs and services.
