The cooperative is made up of 74 districts who purchase over $28 million in food and supplies for independently operated meal programs. The governance of the cooperative has been one single school district since its inception. They are changing their governance to an independent board made up of members of the cooperative.

Parchment is requesting an additional $14,027.25 to finish digitizing 1962 to 1975, plus some additional one page and half page documents that go into the 1990’s. Once this is completed, we will only have class of 2018, 2019, 2023 and the additional classes going forward in the future to be digitized. We will bring quotes for those to you as we receive them.
