Abstract	Representing the mobile facilities pattern of inter-district cooperation, the Northwest Multi-District case is one of four studies addressing access of rural students to vocational education through inter-school district cooperation. The report identifies essential features of this form of cooperation, details factors facilitating/impeding the cooperation/maintenance of the cooperative arrangement, assesses the program's compatibility with its setting encompassing six northwestern South Dakota counties, and recommends modifications for further study and development. Chapter I presents study background, purposes, and methods. Chapter II outlines political, geographical, age, educational, economic, health, social, and agricultural setting characteristics. Chapter III analyzes size, facilities, finances, governance, staff, scheduling, curriculum, students, and perceptions of school personnel and community members of the participating school districts. Chapter IV focuses on the history, legal structure, financing and costs, curriculum, and transportation of the center. Chapters V through VII detail consumer homemaking, occupational home economics, and vocational agricultural programs. Chapter VIII offers a summary, conclusions, and recommendations, citing avoidance of the need for student transporation, equality of school districts' status in operation and cost, clarity of management structures, and quality/flexibility of facilities as major advantages and program continuity and difficulty in incorporating vocational student organizations as major drawbacks of this cooperative approach.
