- ...These districts serve fewer than 0.5% of Michigan public school students, mostly children with certain disabilities.

(FTE=full time equivalent employees)

Like typical districts, ISDs spend about 80% of their budgets on personnel.
Staffing continues to surge upward, even as there are fewer students to serve..."
