Shaping SPED in Central Kansas with Jeff Hayes - Accessible Kansas
In this episode, we sit down with Jeff Hayes, Executive Director of the Central Kansas Cooperative in Education (CKCIE), to unpack how special education works across partnering districts. Jeff explains how CKCIE helps shape and interpret school policies, coordinates services across rural and urban districts, and supports students, families, and educators with staffing, training, and wraparound resources. We also dig into why Jeff chose this work—what keeps him mission-driven, how partnerships make inclusion possible, and where he sees special education headed in Kansas.
