Superintendent's Welcome

Welcome to the Northern Suburban Special Education District’s web site! The purpose of our site is to provide an overview of the district’s programs, services and leadership initiatives, as well as timely information regarding our Governing Board and Executive Committee meetings. We also list employment opportunities within our district.

NSSED is a special education joint agreement in the north shore suburbs of Chicago. The joint agreement includes nineteen member school districts—fifteen elementary and four high school districts that serve a total student population of 40,000 students.

NSSED is committed to providing responsive and accepting programs and services that will improve the quality of life for students with special needs. We hope that the information we have included will provide the user with meaningful information on our nationally recognized programs.

Please do not hesitate to call on any member of our staff if you need any further information.

Tim Thomas, Superintendent
