About Olympic ESD

{oesd_map} Olympic Educational Service District (ESD) is one of nine regional educational agencies serving school districts and state-approved private schools in Washington State. ESDs function primarily as support agencies and deliver educational services that can be more efficiently or economically performed regionally.

Our Mission is to provide services to the local districts, to assist the Superintendent of Public Instruction and the State Board of Education in the performance of their duties and to promote equity in educational opportunity for students throughout the region.

Olympic ESD is governed by a seven-member board, elected by local school directors. Each board member represents several school districts within the ESD region.

Agency operations are overseen by Walt Bigby, Superintendent.
