Gibson-Pike-Warrick Special Education Cooperative

The Gibson-Pike-Warrick Special Education Cooperative was a three-county Special Education Cooperative, based in Oakland City, Indiana, that provides education for handicapped and special needs students in Gibson, Pike, and Warrick Counties in Southwestern Indiana. It operated its own system of buses designed for handicapped children and teenagers independently of the school corporations. Starting in 2011, each school corporation, starting with Warrick County began assuming the function of the cooperative, essentially ending it.
