NEWESD 101 (NorthEast Washington Educational Service District 101)

NEWESD 101 (NorthEast Washington Educational Service District 101) is a public entity that delivers cooperative services to 59 public school districts, 45 state-approved private schools, and four charter schools in the northeastern region of Washington. Established in 1969, this organization serves over 93,000 students across Adams, Ferry, Lincoln, Pend Oreille, Spokane, Stevens, and Whitman counties, making it one of nine Educational Service Districts (ESDs) in the state. Notably, NEWESD 101 is largely self-supporting, with 97 percent of its revenue deriving from competitive grants and service fees rather than direct state appropriation. The entity operates within the education and IT industries, and although the specific headquarters and recent investment details are not available, it plays a pivotal role in supporting educational institutions across the region.
