Welcome to WWW.THEFEDED.ORG, FED ED's official website. FED ED is a consortium of Illinois school districts, educational organizations and corporate sponsors that represents the interests of suburban schools in our nation's capitol. FED ED was created in recognition of the fact that school districts can no longer be satisfied with representation only in the state capitol, but also need forceful, positive representation in our nation's capitol. The increasing importance of No Child Left Behind (NCLB) and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) demand that public schools have an organized presence in Washington, D.C.
FED ED represents over 500,000 school children in 118 member school districts and corporate sponsors.
