DISTRICT OFFICE

The CVES District Office serves as the administrative hub for Champlain Valley Educational Services (Clinton–Essex–Warren–Washington BOCES). We support our component school districts by coordinating governance, compliance, planning, and shared services—so districts can focus resources where they matter most: student learning.

From Board of Education operations and districtwide planning to policy resources, safety planning, and public information, the District Office helps ensure transparent, efficient, and responsive service to our region.
